Sasha Crist stood in the waiting room of the Milan Puskar Health Right clinic in downtown Morgantown during a quick drop-in visit on a February afternoon. She was there to pick up safe injection supplies. No more than five minutes after she entered through the clinic’s glass door, she was sitting in a room with a social worker, firing off a list of needs.
