Month: May 2020

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., May 29, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Alcohol Justice is excited to announce the launch of the San Rafael Latino MAT Outreach Project (Proyecto Latino TAM).  The first of three informational Spanish language mailings to outline options for those seeking help with an opioid problem will be delivered this week to every household and business in the San Rafael Canal Community and adjacent neighborhoods. The mailings will be enhanced by social media postings, website resources, and short videos.

“With Proyecto Latino TAM, we are promoting access to Spanish-speaking communities and other populations that are underserved by the existing public health structures,” stated Bruce Lee Livingston, Executive Director / CEO of Alcohol Justice. “Opioid addiction is a disease and we are helping our Spanish-speaking residents find where to go for Medication-Assisted Treatment.”

The San Rafael Latino MAT Outreach Project – Proyecto Latino TAM is supported by The Center at Sierra Health Foundation, Drug Free Communities and CARA Opioids grants (under auspices of ONDCP and CDC). Additional support has been supplied by RxSafe Marin, Youth for Justice, and Alcohol Justice.

“Proyecto Latino TAM is an important prevention program in Spanish (and English) that will bridge the information gap about what are opioids, and the health epidemic that has devastated many communities,” said Maite Duran, Community Organizer at Alcohol Justice, founder of Youth for Justice, and Project Coordinator. “We welcome this Spanish language tool to inform and educate the Latino community about the danger of opioids and where to find appropriate resources should they be needed.”

“The struggle of addiction and alcoholism has had lasting effects throughout generations,” stated Dominique McDowell CASIII/BS/RLPS/HRDS, Director of Addiction Services Marin City Health and Wellness Center. “Levels of trauma leading to one’s disparities must be addressed with kindness and understanding allowing us to help heal the suffering with cultural understanding without barriers. Over 11 million people yearly misuse opioids, and over 2.5 million people have tragic outcomes from alcohol related incidents i.e. deaths. Having had personal experience within these tragic numbers I continue to partner and work with organizations whose mission is to combat the disease of addiction.”

The 24-hour broadcast raising funds for COVID-19 relief efforts announces an incredible line-up of international talent aiming to unite the world through the power of dreams on May 29.

DUBAI, UAE, May 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — OHM Live is delighted to confirm the participation of more than 230 global stars in its ground-breaking, 24-hour fundraising broadcast taking place on May 29 from 20:00 GST/16:00 GMT. This amazing line-up of icons from the worlds of music, sport, film, art, fashion and health and wellness is coming together to raise funds for COVID19 relief efforts – and also collect a billion dreams from around the world. 

The broadcast includes contributions from two-time Grammy award-winner Dua Lipa, multi-platinum-selling recording artist Jason Derulo, five-time Grammy award-winner CeeLo Green, Colombian superstar Maluma and a conversation between award-winning actress, producer and philanthropist Eva Longoria Báston and alternative medicine advocate Deepak Chopra. 

Across the broadcast’s 24 hours, which can be viewed on YouTube, Facebook, IGTV, TikTok and ohm.constellation.art, as well as a number of major TV networks, the OHM Live programme has been constructed to feature major stars from each region as the “peak time” moves across the world – from Sonam Kapoor Ahuja in India to Carlos Rivera in Mexico. 

All proceeds of the Constellation Dream Fund raised through OHM Live will go to beneficiaries such as Global Gift Foundation, Dubai Cares, and FromU2Them, all of whom are supporting those on the front lines fighting the impact of COVID19. 

OHM Live is a co-production between Constellation, a human impact accelerator designed to connect the dreams of people everywhere, and ITP Live, a talent management and digital marketing agency head-quartered in Dubai. 

“We’re trying to connect a billion dreams from across the world so we can envision a new future for humanity,” says Jean-Karl Saliba, Constellation co-founder. “That begins by raising funds for the Constellation Dream Fund but also by inviting people to dream together and fight for a healthy, safe and sustainable future.”

“OHM Live is a fantastic project that sees two companies with the same vision come together to create what we hope will be one of the biggest charitable events in internet history. We’ve always been dreamers at ITP Live and this is one of many ambitious, global projects to come,” says Ahmad Bashour, Executive Director, ITP Live.
