This story was told by Wanette Foreman to Kyonda Trass in an interview. It has been lightly edited for length and clarity. My substance use began long before I moved to Richmond. I came here from Oakland in 1998 with my husband, becausewe were looking for better housing opportunities. It was during the dot-com boom. The rent was cheaper in Richmond, and I was able to transfer my housing voucher. Since then, I’ve lived in the Iron Triangle and Richmond Heights.
