    I am Janko Belin,49 years old soc. worker(grad.) and drug user. In drug related policies and user issues I am involved for many many years. Last 1o years I am active in NGO AREAL. In 2002 AREAL opened the 1st Shelter for homeless drug users in Ljubljana SLOVENIA. Before 2002 I was involved as an Outreach worker on project STIGMA (Aids Fundacija ROBERT). Even befor I conducted 1st SLO 1 year outreach project in CSD MOSTE SF FUŽINE. I trained our FSD students. With Vito Flaker and 2 more co-workers we write "LIVING ON HEROIN 1, 2" books in 1999. I was involved in several studies of phenomena..etc, etc. Last few years AREAL took some severe blows from government unprincipled officials of SLOVENIA. Our NGO was nearly destroyed becouse of corrrupted policies (been 4 months in prison in 2010 I got 5 zero’s sume of $$ compensation...) of our establishment...and rest is history... With regards, Janko Belin
