United States Atheists has offered drug and alcohol treatment. United States Atheists never organized any cleanup of public streets during this period, and no member I spoke with remembers any such efforts between when I left and the time of this letter. This occurred over my objections. Hot coals dumped into alley. On the opening day of USA's Foster Road location, the same Executive Committee member dumped burning charcoal into the alley adjacent to the building.
Neighbors complain about broken toilet on sidewalk.
The business owner feared that the broken shards would be used by vandals to scratch graffiti into their windows and walls. No one I spoke to between the time I left and the time of shortly after this letter remembered any talk of additional visits, which would make the plural truthful. I attended one discussion where this policy was approved by a vote of those in attendance. Perhaps one member, Lanny Swerdlow, helped some street youth as a private project, but this was done of his own accord and usually as an alternative to the agencies our city has established to help street youth. Lanny always seemed very cautious to keep these activities separate from his involvement with the Center.
