We do not have the resources in the treatment field to begin to keep up with it, and that's the piece that I think we're missing here is: I haven't seen a lot of new resources.
Ever wondered how laws can change the landscape of addiction treatment? In this eye-opening episode of 'Recovery Radio', Deb Beck, President of the Drug and Alcohol Services Providers (DASPOP), shares her passionate fight for better legislation. Beck's work is not just about policies; it's about people. She champions both treatment providers and families affected by addiction, lobbying tirelessly to secure the necessary resources to combat this pervasive issue.
Deb highlights some of the toughest challenges in the field, like the violation of parity laws in insurance coverage and shifting Medicaid eligibility that could restrict access to essential healthcare. But it's not all doom and gloom. Beck's relentless advocacy brings a beacon of hope to those in the trenches of addiction recovery. She believes that every effort, no matter how small, counts in this ongoing battle.
Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the legislative hurdles and the critical need for robust support systems. This episode is a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction, whether directly or indirectly. It's an inspiring reminder that change is possible when we come together and fight for it.
