概要
Melissa Brown works in behavioral health leadership and has firsthand experience with a major issue most families don’t even know exists:
In Virginia, “barrier crimes” can prevent someone with a criminal record from working in direct care roles inside behavioral health and addiction treatment — even when that person is stable in recovery and qualified to serve.
And here’s the reality: Some of the most effective people helping addicted individuals today are people who’ve lived it. Recovery often comes with a checkered past — but these laws can permanently block people from the very work that helps others heal.
In this episode we talk about:
• What Virginia “barrier crimes” are
• Why these restrictions limit the treatment workforce
• How this system can unintentionally hurt recovery outcomes
• Second chances vs. public safety
• What families, providers, and policymakers should be thinking about
