Memorial
2/5/99
Many of our readers in the
harm reduction community knew Rod Sorge, a long-time harm reduction activist,
most recently at the Harm Reduction Coalition in New York. Rod passed
away last week, after a long illness, though we're told he was in good
spirits in recent months. A memorial is being held on Feb. 20th,
at Housing Works, 743 E. 9th St. (corner Ave. D), New York City.
For more information, call Allan Clear or Paul Cherashore at (212) 213-6376.
Rod Sorge received a Citizen's
Action Award from the Drug Policy Foundation in 1996 -- read it on their
web site at http://www.dpf.org/html/1996_awardees.html#ran1
and learn more about his considerable contributions to harm reduction and
drug policy.
