🎃It was a spooktacular event at the maplespringsofpalmer tonight! 🔮I was the resident fortune teller and candy distributor!🍬
I was able to participate at this event because of the amazing friends I have in the community who requested it and bookstore friends to cover the space for me.

👏Thank you, Hannah Green, for traveling all the way to Wasilla from Chicago to write this article. This is a deeply human piece — it captures both the desperation and resilience within Alaska’s overlapping crises of addiction, homelessness, and community care.
