Improving outcomes in jails and prisons

  • Summary

  • Navigating the criminal justice system can be a difficult experience for anyone, but for people who struggle with opioid use, or those in recovery, these challenges can feel insurmountable. Treatment within jails and prisons is not consistent, and people can be left with more challenges than solutions upon release.


    In this episode, we will hear from people doing the work to move the needle and equip people with evidence-based resources to prevent opioid overdose and promote recovery.


    Guests:

    • Chris Chavez, Regional Manager of Community Programs at HOPE Incorporated.
    • Dr. Olivia Sugarman, postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
    • Jason Edgcomb, Superintendent at the LaSalle County Jail
