Hey family!

My name is Galen T., a grateful recovering addict, with ~13 years clean. My clean date is December 2nd, 2013. This Fellowship saved my life. With 18+ years in web engineering, within a 25-year career that began in graphic design and digital publishing, it is my honor and privilege to serve as your MANA Newsletter Subcommittee Chair.

I will continue creating the print version of Straight Hope each month, converting the print edition into a fully modern, indexable, and discoverable Next.js (React)-based Virtual Straight Hope. I have, with the authorization of the Service Committee acquired and configured a custom web domain for the virtual edition at https://straighthope.org. Please check it out! But please be aware that this is a work-in-progress and my first attempt at doing this!

I want to give a genuine and heartfelt thank you to MANA in its entirety, for not only helping me to turn my life around but also granting me multiple chances to serve this community. I look forward to continuing to serve, now in this very exciting capacity.
