To Hell and Back Again from Addiction to Advocacy

THE LONGEST ROAD

By Joe Calendino and Gary Little

In The Longest Road, Joe Calendino relives his harrowing journey from full-patch Hells Angel to rock bottom. Consumed by drugs and alcohol, he spiralled out of control and ended up strung out, desperate and destitute. Now it’s his mission to protect at-risk youth from that same fate.

A Journey of Redemption and Advocacy

Written with his trusted confidant and former high school counsellor, Gary Little, this gripping memoir shares more than Calendino's story of relapse and redemption. It also tells the stories of the hidden angels who helped save his life, and the lives of the young people he now strives to help in his role as executive director of Yo Bro Yo Girl Youth Initiative. There are families who have lost loved ones to overdose, friends whose habits have landed them in gangs or in jail, and the call to action of a community that needs help, healing and hope—now more than ever.

Inspiring Change Through Advocacy

Joe Calendino and Gary Little use Joe’s story to inspire and support those struggling with addiction through outreach, education, and community efforts.
