Never Perfect, Never Over is an inspiring, hour-and-20-minute documentary that tells the remarkable story of Tacoma native Dave Purchase. In the face of the devastating AIDS epidemic of the 1980s, Dave and his fellow friends refused to stand by as people in their community suffered. Taking bold action, they launched the first legally sanctioned syringe exchange in North America, sparking a national harm reduction movement that continues to save lives today.
This documentary not only captures Dave’s legacy but also the courage of a movement that endures in the fight against the opioid epidemic. Through powerful storytelling and intimate interviews, Never Perfect, Never Over is a call to action, reminding us all that this life-saving work is far from over.
Join us in the fight for resilience, compassion, and lasting community impact. Don’t miss it!
