Opioids Part 5: A story of addiction, incarceration, recovery, and advocacy (with Bethany Hallam)
In the final part of our series on the opioid crisis in Appalachia, we talk to Bethany Hallam. Bethany is a Councilmember at-Large for Allegheny County, PA. Bethany became addicted to prescription opioids at a young age after being overprescribed Vicodin for an ACL injury. Due to her struggles with addiction, she spent time in the county jail. She began her recovery in 2016 and was elected to the Allegheny County council in 2019.
