From the Streets to Service: James Sherman’s Journey with The Everywhere Project
Update: 2025-05-23
Description
In this powerful and inspiring episode, we sit down with James Sherman, a dedicated advocate, educator, and Substance Use Navigator whose personal journey from homelessness and active drug use in Philadelphia to becoming a core team member at The Everywhere Project is nothing short of remarkable. James shares how receiving life-saving materials from the very organization he now serves helped him survive — and how he now pays it forward through education on overdose reversal, harm reduction tools like testing strips, and fighting stigma around substance use. We explore the impact of compassionate drug policies, real-world statistics, and the power of lived experience in shaping better support systems. Tune in for a conversation about resilience, purpose, and the human side of harm reduction.
