In this thought-provoking episode of Recovery Rocks, co-hosts Lisa Smith and Tawny Lara dive into the pressing issue of how the new administration's policies are affecting nonprofit organisations that support at-risk populations, including the LGBTQA+ community. With funding cuts and banned language policies, these vital organisations are struggling to continue their essential work.
