Directed by and Robin Honan, André Robert Lee, Ross Kauffman
MEET ME WHERE I AM follows Adolphus Nickleberry through his journey at University of Utah Health’s Intensive Outpatient Clinic as he rewrites his story with help from compassionate providers. Overcoming the ripples of health disparities and racism that last generations while surviving the loss of his parents and a lifetime of substance abuse, Adolphus looks to the future, relishing time spent with his family. “That’s the best love in the world,” he says. “It’s like a gift given back to me.”
