Segment 1

The segment begins with a conversation about how the Exponents philosophy came to be. Joe Turner recounts his experiences and memories of the AIDS pandemic. He remembers how terrifying that time was and how the response of the LGBTQ+ community shaped the outcome of the lives of many individuals; instead of a philosophy of abstinence, Joey says the Act Up movement promoted ‘safer sex’ and in doing so, were able to provide a feasible alternative to the AIDS pandemic.

Inspired by this philosophy, Joe Turner wanted to find alternatives to substance abuse treatments which are rooted in compassion. Joe states that his organization meets people at the stage of recovery they are in.
