Timothy Emerson

Today outside of Goodwill on 6th Ave.,, South and Massachusetts.

It's been a super great Easter, I got to help 1 young lady Into treatment and another calling grateful for the opportunity to get clean. At times it's a challenge to work with folks that have substance abuse issues but it's extremely rewarding for the ones that do well. Getting clean is a solid pathway to a stable life. @weheartseattle @weheartfounder

Todays outreach efforts 💚

I visited McLean Trail today for a routine scout and basic check up getting ready for Saturdays litter pick and during my scout I met Malex living in tent at the bottom of the trail hanging with some of the campers. I obviously wanted to know how he ended up in a tent on the trail. Turns out he followed love and romance and it led him here because that did not work out but he stated he wasn’t homeless either, he apparently had a home in Shelton Wa. With people that love him and support him. He was in complete distress and ready to go home right then! I immediately tried to find him a bus ride over, turns out that’s virtually impossible so I asked him if he trusted me enough to take him home and of course he was really excited for the opportunity to go home. On this rather long drive we got to know one another and made the appropriate calls to his LEAD worker and was immediately making appointments to get back on his medications. He even told me he finds peace in fishing and little did he know I had gift for him. As we pulled into the shtleter parking lot for the arranged meeting between him and his loved I gave him a fishing pole and box of tackle and a big hug. At that moment he said he the most exited to reunite with his Dog Razor and take him fishing and work on finding his peace again 💚
By just being a kind supportive human I was able to take him from the ledge of crisis back home with sane thoughts and a fishing pole. I wish you the best of luck buddy @weheartseattle @weheartfounder
