Joanna Conti: Revolutionizing Addiction Treatment with Data-Driven Insights

If you have an addiction, you need to stop ever using drugs or alcohol again, and we'll call that the abstinent group, the abstinence group. Those are the traditional addiction treatment centers.
Imagine facing the harrowing reality of a loved one battling a life-threatening addiction, and finding out that many treatment centers don't measure their success rates. This is exactly what happened to Joanna Conti when her daughter needed help. In this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety, host John M.
sits down with Joanna Conti, the CEO of Vista Research Group and Chair of the Board for Conquer Addiction, to discuss her journey and mission to bring transparency and accountability to addiction treatment. Joanna's story begins with her desperate search for an effective rehab for her daughter, only to discover that none of the centers she contacted could provide data on their treatment outcomes. This revelation sparked her determination to change the system.
Joanna shares how this experience led her to create Vista Research Group, an organization dedicated to collecting and analyzing data to improve addiction treatment. The conversation covers a range of topics, including the different types of treatment centers, the importance of measuring outcomes, and the need for industry-wide regulations. Joanna also talks about her work with soberlink, a remote alcohol monitoring system that helps individuals document their sobriety.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of addiction treatment. It highlights the critical need for data-driven approaches and offers hope for more effective recovery options. Whether you're personally affected by addiction or just curious about how treatment can be improved, Joanna's insights are both eye-opening and inspiring.
