“I died six times …” Guy Felicella proves harm reduction saves lives and the pandemic has made it more important than ever

View descriptionShare

Guy Felicella grew up in a middle class home in Richmond but fell into addiction at a young age. Guy spent 30 years in the repeated cycle of gangs, addiction, treatment and jail. He spent nearly 20 years residing in the two block radius in the Downtown Eastside Vancouver using many resources, including harm reduction, to keep himself alive. But Guy has escaped the grips of the turmoil that kept him suffering and resides with his wife and three young children with multiple years of recovery and sobriety under his belt. And today he helps educate others in harm reduction and addiction. He shares his story with Dahlia Kurtz on The Goods.
