Concordance

Over the past several days, we have been grateful to welcome Compass Health Network's Mobile Denal unit to our St. Louis Center, providing participants with access to dental care on-site.

Thank you to the Compass Health team for partnering with us to help participants access important dental care and for investing in the health and well-being of our participants.

Last week, we welcomed Dr. Paul Young, a St. Louis neurosurgeon, to our St. Louis Center for an in-depth discussion on the brain and the ways addiction impacts its different functions and regions. Participants had the unique opportunity to learn about brain function firsthand, including viewing a real human brain while exploring how different areas influence memory, behavior, decision-making, and healing.

We’re grateful to Dr. Young for sharing his expertise and helping create an engaging, educational experience for our participants. Opportunities like this help foster deeper understanding, and remind our participants that recovery is both a mental and physical journey.

Last week, Vivent Health Prevention St. Louis’s Mobile Health Services team visited our St. Louis Center to provide free mobile STI testing for our participants.

Partnerships like these help increase access to important health services and empower our participants as they navigate their reentry journey. Thank you to the Vivent Health team for spending time with our Concordance community and helping support the health and wellness of those we serve!
