There were a lot of dogs in Strouse Adler (PMC Property), I don't remember huskies specifically but it didn't seem like there were restricted breeds.

Not the most upscale building in town, but also not a slumlord like some of the big property companies in the area. Wooster Square is nearby and has a lot of people walk their dogs there. It's not a huge park though, a husky might be better off up near East Rock if you can find a place.

I've only ever dabbled in tabletop RPGs, but DMing is a lot of work and if you want someone good/experienced, you'll probably have to pay them a bit for their patience and labor. Especially since the pandmic started it has become a skill that is being increasingly monetized https://www.polygon.com/22525941/how-to-hire-a-dungeon-master

I dunno I think it varies person to person. My friend got out the joint and I got him a restaurant job and he’s been on the straight and skinny ever since. Going back to school, got a girlfriend, etc etc. For some people, you might be the only support system they have. I know for my friend, I was.

oh ok.. thats fucking terrible. honestly i think she should go to a sober living house first. i know they have them in new haven, bridgeport, stamford

No, because she isn’t being released early. She called it EOSing? Apparently because she is no longer the responsibility of the Department of Corrections - they don’t put her in a half-way house (or help with housing in anyway).

From Yale to jail.

I am not sure. I haven't gone yet to the Tabletop night. I just saw the promotion when I was there.

Good for people with 0 experience other than cultural osmosis?

Armada Brewing in Fair Haven does Tuesday Tabletop Nights where they play RPGs and card type games. Worth a look, especially considering they make some really good beer!

Okay I'll ask them if they're up for something like that.

Same in Edgewood / Boulevard area

she should go to a sober house first. she needs time to adjust, which is something they dont prepare us for when we are released. are they making her go to a halfway house first or no?

I find the fact that Yale Police always send sthese notifications a week after the incident really patronizing. Even "timely warnings" get sent 3-5h after the incident occurs. They are not useful after the fact. Their goal is to save the university face and quell any panic, not to genuinely keep us informed in a way that would allow us to make our own decisions about our safety.

new england reuse in north haven is worth checking out! it's a pretty similar to the habitat restores.

also, it's a little more expensive and boutique/vintage-oriented, but monger's market in bridgeport is always worth the trip on a sunday.

She needs to go to a sober house. If she wants to have her own space that badly, she wants to use. There are plenty of opportunities for addicts to get help. They have to want it.

My advice to you is to lovingly disengage. Don't give her any money. Don't research for her. Don't do anything that relieves her of her own personal responsibility. Involving yourself is only going to lead you to pain.

Ugh, 2 shill posts in a week for me… check out Elm City Games. We have new players all the time in our organized public games. If you want to do an intro session as a group we can arrange that as well. All of this costs money though, so may or may not be the right fit for you.

I mean you could, but it’d prolly be in a shittier neighborhood where a former addict would face temptations. I remember when my friend got out of prison, I would drive him to his methadone dose appointments and there would be guys waiting on the curb right outside the place trying to sell him dope.

Is it hard to find something for about 1,000/mo in new haven?

(BTW, props to you and OP, you sound like good friends and good people.)

Yeeesh for that price range I’d just get her out of new haven. My friend was in the same situation minus the stealing and I found him a place in derby for cheap.

Check the local pawn shops and/or scrap yards. Many property thefts are taken for a quick buck. Property inventory laws at pawn shops have moved sales to scrap yards. It can't hurt.

Also, look close. Bad actors aren't taking this out of town.

Google "Soccer Shots in Ct" Its supposed to be a good program!

Wallingford one has a Facebook, they post items on it so I guess that is a good place to keep an eye out for anything interesting

Not a store, but Facebook Marketplace usually has good stuff.
