What if you could go to substance use detox then the dentist on the same day, in one place - and your insurance would cover it? At PCC Community Wellness Center, this is the norm. PCC provides integrated healthcare to underinsured and uninsured individuals. Although we don't downward-dog in a PCC yoga class or get into the weeds of the organization's urban farm in this episode, we discuss the benefits of integrated care, especially for mothers and babies with substance use disorders, and theorize about what it would take to become a Vision Zero world - where overdoses cease to exist.
PCC Chief Population Health Officer Amanda Brooks, LCSW, CADC, is a graduate of the University of Chicago School of Social Service Administration and a recovering Rockette.
