'We are in dark times' | Reeling from Four Overdose Deaths in Four Days, Lummi Nation Calls for Urgent Action

Jefferson, a crisis outreach supervisor for Lummi Nation, spends much of her time these days supporting tribal members who live in the homeless encampment and use opioids. A few weeks earlier, authorities had seized 70,000 fentanyl pills at the encampment.
