Kudos to @PuebloCounty for creating a Plans of Safe Care Framework, improving cross-system care coordination by rapidly connecting families with prenatal substance use to trusted resources to help keep infants safely with their caregiver when possible. bit.ly/48C1SqS
Our new brief reports promising results from Year 1 of the Plans of Safe Care Pilot in the San Luis Valley. Families in the six-county region can better access care as they navigate pregnancy, early parenting, and substance use recovery. bit.ly/48C1SqS
