Hi, I'm Jeff.
I've worked in street outreach, drop-in centres, housing programs and classrooms, and I've trained other peer supporters along the way. Now I make simple tools for the people who carry a lot for others, and for themselves.

Until next time, remember to take care of yourself, however that looks to you.
