How do we design innovative programs to improve linkage to follow-up medical care and addiction treatment after a hospitalization or ER visit?

We listen to those who know best—patients, nurses, frontline providers, and community advocates. These are core voices of CONNECT.

📢We’d love to hear your thoughts!
