Dr. Danya Fast was recently interviewed by the Vancouver Sun about her research looking at the stories of young people living on the streets of Vancouver and her new book ” The Best Place: Addiction, Intervention, and Living and Dying Young in Vancouver”
“I hope that the book humanizes these young people,” Fast said. “This is a group of funny, awkward, fierce, complicated, young people — teenagers and very young adults — who had, in some ways, very ordinary dreams of making a life in Vancouver. And far too many of them lost their lives far too soon.” – Danya Fast
