What happens when the system meant to help doesn't?
In this episode, Sunithi Kuruppu joins us for a focused look at the state of mental health crisis care in Ohio. The conversation explores the growing disconnect between rising community needs and the structures in place to meet them.
We discuss:
-
Clear Pathways' mission, vision, and areas of impact
-
The current landscape of Ohio's crisis response system
-
Community-based innovations like the Crisis Response Pilot and Local Crisis Systems Matrix
-
The ongoing struggle for equitable access, particularly for marginalized communities
One theme became clear: innovation isn't the hard part. Ensuring everyone has access to affordable care is.
This episode is essential for anyone interested in the future of behavioral health, equity, and the systems that shape them.
🎧 Listen in as we examine what's working, what's missing, and what must come next.
