Join us for our very first podcast episode ever with hosts Earl Miller & Sera Davidow and special guests John Trask, Chris Hansen and Rob Wipond.
On June 18, 2025, WGBH reporter Alexi Cohan published a story of misuse of restraints at Worcester State Hospital. The story revealed how John Trask singlehandedly unearthed data that suggests the hospital may have held patients for thousands of hours of restraints for little more than staff convenience.
This episode will go beyond the article and take a deep dive into the story of John's persistent and courageous whistleblowing as a Massachusetts state employee working at Worcester State Hospital.
Learn why John believes that getting this story told was worth risking his job and possibly even his home and hear reflections on the situation from Chris Hansen (Co-Director, Intentional Peer Support) and Rob Wipond (journalist and author of 'Your Consent is Not Required').
