Jordan shares the many ways that mental health coordinators—and the entire dedicated team at the Child Advocacy Center—make a profound difference in the lives of children impacted by neglect and abuse. He also discusses the vital role of the UPMC Pinnacle Foundation in ensuring that patients and their families never see a bill, making compassionate, high-quality care accessible during an incredibly difficult time.
While the topic is a difficult one, it’s an important conversation about hope, healing, and the people working tirelessly to protect children in our communities.
