Join us for a special conversation between award-winning journalist Shoshana Walter and bestselling and award-winning author Barbara Kingsolver as they chat about Walterâs book Rehab: An American Scandal. In this work, Walter, a Pulitzer finalist, exposes the countryâs failed response to the opioid crisis, and the malfeasance, corruption, and snake oil which blight the drug rehabilitation industry.Today, more people have access to treatment than ever before. So why isnât it working? The answer is that in Americaâwhere anyone can get addictedâonly certain people get a real chance to recover. Despite record numbers of overdose deaths, our default response is still to punish, while rehabs across the United States fail to incorporate scientifically proven strategies and exploit patients. Be sure to register now to participate in this urgent conversation and learn insight on how we might fix the system to save lives.
