City of Charleston Health and Wellness Advisory Monthly Meeting9/7/2022
C
B
City
of
charleston's,
health
and
wellness
advisory
committee
hope
everyone
had
a
good
labor
day
weekend
and
back
in
full
force.
Now
I
know
it's
a
busy
time.
I
appreciate
everybody
being
here
being
on
here
and
contributing
your
time.
I
know
you're
all
very,
very
busy
and
we
value
your
time
and
your
contributions
to
this
committee.
B
So,
thank
you
very
much,
so
we
will
start
with
the
approval
of
minutes
for
the
march
3rd
april,
6th
may
3rd
june,
1st
july,
6
and
august
3rd
2022
meetings,
and
I
hope
everybody
had
a
chance
to
look
at
those
paul
did
a
a
great
job
of
and
a
lot
of
work
getting
those
minutes
together.
So
thank
you
to
paul,
but
if,
if
I
can
get
somebody
to
make
a
motion
to
approve
those,
I
would
appreciate
it.
A
F
B
C
So
paul,
if
you
don't
mind
just
before
you
start
be
very
brief.
I
just
wanted
to
share
with
everyone
that
the
city
of
charleston
did
participate
in
one
of
the
opioid
lawsuits,
which
was
settled
recently
and
the
the
payments
that
we
will
receive
will
be
over.
I
understand
a
15
or
20
year
period.
The
initial
year
is
going
to
be,
I
think,
well
over
a
million
dollars,
and
then
it
will
go
out
over
time
with
subsequent
smaller
payments.
C
The
county
and
some
of
the
other
jurisdictions
regionally
are
receiving
funding
as
well,
and
so
what
I
would
like
to
ask
y'all
is
to
consider
any
recommendations
that
the
city
may
consider
for
for
spending
these
funds
to
help
address
opioid
addiction,
and
you
know,
treatment
for
for
addiction.
I
think
the
direction
that
I
I
personally
believe
in,
because
addiction
sees
no
jurisdictional
boundaries.
C
I
mean
someone
who's
addicted,
doesn't
care
whether
they're
in
the
city
of
north
charleston
or
charleston
or
mount
pleasant
is
to
try
to
have
a
regional
approach,
but
there
could
be
specific
things,
of
course,
that
we
would
recommend
for
the
city
of
charleston.
You
know
as
well
so
anyway,
just
with
that
little
prelude,
I
wanted
to
ask
y'all
some
consideration
and-
and
please
share
any
recommendations
after
you
all
think
about
it
back
back
with
us
paul.
A
I
just
wanted
to
really
just
what
the
mayor
said
is
is
could
have
that
could
have
taken.
My
whole
talk
right
there,
but
I
just
really
want
to
just
talk
about
the
opioid
opioid
settlement
and
and
just
go
through
what
we
know,
what
we
know
of
how
it
came
about
that
it
was
the
in
our.
There
was
a
larger
one
handled
on
the
national
area
that
allowed
the
states
in
to
set
it
up.
A
Through
an
agreement
rate
reached
by
wilson,
92
percent
of
the
funds
go
directly
to
address
the
opioid
crisis
and
a
mar
a
majority
of
these
are
set
aside
for
all
46
counties,
43
eligible
municipalities
and
then
what's
key
in
that
whole
area
too.
That's
also
100
million
to
be
available
for
disbursements
such
as
non-profits
hospitals,
state
agencies
and
others
to
work
to
help
to
address
the
opioid
clinic
or
epidemic.
A
I
did
not
figure
out
what
berkeley
county
was
getting
on
it
as
well,
and
what
our
partnerships
up
there
go
to
their
the
the
general
areas
of
focus
for
this,
the
core
abatement
strategies.
I
believe
they
have
to
to
really
focus
on
four
of
these
main
core
abatement
strategies,
but
you
can
see
where
the
the
focus
is
from
how
the
the
act
was
created
or
the
for
us
in
our
state
to
where
it
would
be
focusing
on,
and
then
there
are
some
approved
uses.
You
can
also
see
on
the
the
slide.
A
A
She
learned
of
innovative
work
that
was
going
on
in
arlington
maryland
and
she
reached
out
and
brought
some
of
that
information
back
and
over
the
last
three
years
has
shepherd
the
addiction
crisis
task
force
consisting
of
law
enforcement,
public
health
treatment,
emergency
medical
response,
school
districts
and
many
other
organizations
to
reduce
the
incidence
of
overdose,
injury
and
death.
The
city
of
charleston
and
our
police
department
have
been
active
leaders
in
the
act
force
and
the
successful
submission
of
a
grant
recently
has
resulted
in
additional
resources
being
bought
brought
to
charleston
county.
A
That
is
a
big
player
that
probably
we're
a
leader
in
a
lot
of
areas
in
our
state
and
our
our
country,
with
having
such
a
a
group
already
in
existence
to
be
able
to
help
lead
us
in
this
discussion
and
and
going
forth
with
our
our
the
grant
or
to
summon
the
settlement
funds.
But
we
also
have
another
strong
player
in
the
charleston
center.
That
is
a
really
we've
had
them
had
talked
to
us
some
so
many
times,
but
they
are
really
the
link
that
ties
a
lot
of
the
partnerships
together.
A
I
did
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
the
cpd's
efforts
that
I
read
about
in
in
newspaper
over
different
times,
but
in
2016
our
police
department
became
the
first
in
the
low
country
to
train
officers
and
supply
them
with
narcan
to
treat
overdose
victims
before
ems
arrived
on
the
scene.
This
additional
tools
greatly
improved
the
chances
of
survival
of
an
overdose
victim
and
then
again
in
2020,
there
were
13
total
incidents
in
which
a
charleston
police
officer
administered
narcan.
A
It's
important
again
for
us
to
realize
that
the
settlement
money
coming
in
here
is
the
foundation
to
make
sure
we
continue
and
grow.
Programs
such
as
this
in
the
the
state
has
published
from
deodos
and
I'll.
Give
you
this
link
I'll,
send
it
out
to
you.
But
this
document
here
is
a
pdf
document.
It
sort
of
describes
everything
about.
A
A
The
solution
and
working
with
act
working
with
our
local
law
enforcement
working
with
leaders
like
mayor
teklenberg
and
our
city
council
and
and
working
with
in
in
the
city
working
with
our
group,
the
homeless,
commission,
the
mayor's
homeless
commission,
as
well
as
our
community
health
and
development.
All
of
those
areas,
I'm
sorry,
are
housing
and
community
development.
A
All
of
those
areas
are
very
impactful
to
any
efforts
we
make
in
the
city,
so
just
wanted
to
give
you
a
very
fast,
quick,
brief
overview
of
the
settlement
and
remind
you
that
it
is
bringing
some
money
into
the
city
and
it
does
have
a
specific
purpose,
and,
as
the
mayor
says,
we
don't
know
what
that
plan
looks.
Like
the.
A
I
look
for
this
being
a
very
robust
discussion
over
time.
But
again,
as
the
mayor
said,
it's
not
just
our
law
enforcement
or
our
homeless
group
commission
pulling
stuff
together,
it's
about
a
community
talking
together
and
working
together
and
and
thinking
more
than
just
one
little
element
of
the
charleston
county
area,
thinking
of
our
city,
but
thinking
about
all
the
reach
that
we
have
on
the
metro
area
and
and
how
we
can
best
serve
it
all.
A
So
with
that,
I
just
wanted
to
to
introduce
you
to
it
I'll
share
these
slides
with
you,
so
you
can
see
it
in
that
link
to
the
deodos
document.
That
will
give
you
a
lot
more
detail,
but
I
just
want
to
throw
it
out
there
and
mayor.
I
didn't
know
if
you
want,
or
mike
or
kevin,
if
y'all
wanted
to
add
any
more
in
councilman
seeking.
B
C
B
Mayor
the
reason
I
asked
that
question,
is
you
made
your
preliminary
comments
and
talked
about?
This
would
be
something
that
would
be
natural
to
pull
into
a
regional
approach,
and
I
100
agree
with
that,
and
it
seems
to
me
if
we
talk
to
mount
pleasant,
north
charleston,
along
with
the
county,
the
bigger
the
pool,
the
more
the
resource
and
the
more
the
cooperation,
the
better
off
we're
going
to
be
in
in
this
area.
So
you
know
sort
of
preliminarily.
That
would
be
something
I
would
encourage.
C
A
B
D
I
would
just
wanted
to
add
in
the
hospital
side
of
it.
I'm
sure
muc
is
doing.
The
same
thing
represent
francis
has
pushed
for
a
grant
as
well
to
the
to
to
get
doses
of
narcan
that
we
could
distribute
to
for
our
chronic
pain
clinics
and
also
to
our
teammates
and
to
the
community
at
large
and,
like
the
mayor,
said
we
this.
This
is
not
a
boundary
thing,
because
somebody
that's
overdosing
does
not
care
where
they
are
and
it,
whether
it's
accidental
or
or
something
that
they
wanted
to
do.
D
This
is
something
that
we
all
need
to
grasp
and
and
take
care
of,
and
we're
trying
to
get
narcan
here.
I'm
a
licensed
narcan
instructor
as
well,
and
I
teach
people
in
community
and
we
actually
just
had
a
life
saved
in
downtown
charleston,
because
one
of
my
one
of
one
of
our
nurses
had
the
doses
and
was
able
to
help
someone
until
police
and
ems
arrived
a
young
man.
So
this
I'm
glad
this
is
all
coming
through.
I'm
glad
this
is
coming
to
fruition.
D
D
Sorry
that
came
out
wrong
as
long
as
we
can
all
work
together
and
get
this
out
there
and
get
these
doses.
Obviously
narcan
is
a
huge
band-aid,
doesn't
fix
the
issue,
training
and
and
help
with
these
patients
fixes
the
issue,
so
they
can
stop
with
the
stop
the
addiction.
That's
that's
the
end
game,
but
the
narcan
is
a
very
necessary
band-aid
to
stop
deaths.
So
hopefully
we
can.
This
can
happen
sooner
than
later.
C
C
Some
statistics
about
all
this,
but
no
surprise
numbers
are
up
in
in
the
region
and
in
the
state,
for
you
know,
overdoses
and
deaths
from
from
opioids,
and
it's
really
a
scourge
and-
and
I
hate
to
say-
but
I
think
our
statistics
per
capita
you
know
in
the
charleston
region
are-
are
pretty
high,
compare
compared
to
the
rest
of
the
country.
So
it's
real
it's
here
and
you
know
I
I
think,
we're
all
on
board
that
a
regional
approach
makes
sense.
C
We
want
to
be
able
to
use
these
funds
very
wisely.
It's
clear,
you
know.
Charleston
center,
as
you
mentioned,
will
be
a
key
component
of
of
anything
going
forward
and
they're
relocating
to
a
new
center
right
up
in
north
charleston,
on
rivers,
avenue
and
they're,
going
to
expand
their
number
of
beds
and
and
capacity
up
there.
So
it
it's
really
a
kind
of
good
timing
for
for
all
this
to
come
together.
B
G
We're
involved
with
some
with
some
research
on
overdose
prevention,
a
multi-multi-site
clinical
trial
across
the
country
and
we're
we're
learning
a
lot
and
a
lot
of
the
assumptions
that
we
had
going
into
doing
that
we've
learned
are
wrong.
There
are
a
lot
of
people
that
are
overdosing
on
opioids,
who
didn't
even
know
that
they
were
using
opioids
and
do
not
have
an
opioid
use
disorder
but
they're
still
dying
from
their
overdoses.
G
So
there's
a
lot
to
learn
and
a
lot
that
we
can
talk
about,
and
so
my
interest
was
really
just
to
to
be
part
of
the
discussion
and
to
help
us
think
carefully
about
how
to
use
this
funding.
That's
coming
our
way.
It's
a
wonderful!
It's
an
opportunity
for
us
to
do
some
things
that
we
haven't
been
able
to
do
before.
So.
Thank
you
so
much
for
including
me.
A
A
F
F
G
F
Okay,
I
knew
you're
leaving,
and
I
appreciate
you
joining
for
the
time
that
you
had
and
we'll
certainly
bring
back
questions
that
I'm
not
able
to
answer
so.
We've
been
talking
about
this
and
right.
Mary
teklenberg
knows
that
I
always
come
with
some
data,
and
so
this
really
shows
that
the
synthetic
opioid
female
is
largely
responsible
for
our
increase
in
overdose
deaths,
really
starting
around
2014
and
continuing
on
today.
F
F
I
think
of
four
pillars
when
we
talk
about
responding
to
the
overdose
crisis
and
those
include
prevention,
harm
reduction,
treatment
and
stopping
stigma
and
really
harm
reduction
addresses,
it
is
one
of
the
pillars,
but
stopping
stigma.
I
think
also
is
very
much
addressed
with
with
harm
reduction
methods.
F
We
must
work
together
to
remove
the
stigma
associated
with
substance,
use,
disorder
and
overdose.
Sarah
goldsby,
on
overdose
awareness
day
last
week,
said
that
people
can
and
do
recover
from
substance
use
disorders
and
go
on
to
lead
healthy
lives.
But
that
only
happens
when
we
remove
the
stigma
associated
with
substance,
use,
disorder
and
overdose
and
are
able
to
walk
with
those
in
our
community
who
are
trying
to
trying
to
to
get
better.
F
So
what
is
harm
reduction?
It's
really
a
set
of
practical
strategies
of
ideas
aimed
at
reducing
negative
consequences
associated
with
drug
use.
These
approaches
have
proved
to
prevent
death,
injury,
disease,
overdose
and
substance.
Misuse
and
harm
reduction
is
effective
in
addressing
the
public
health
epidemic
involving
substance
use,
as
well
as
infectious
diseases
and
other
harms
associated
with
drug
abuse
in
the
public
health
community.
F
F
Yes,
providing
naloxone
to
individuals
at
risk
of
overdose
or
to
those
who
might
respond
to
an
overdose
is
part
of
this,
and
we
are
doing
a
good
job
with
our
police
and
fire
department,
as
well
as
getting
naloxone
into
the
hands
of
community
members,
as
meredith
was
saying
that
can
make
a
difference
into
the
hands
of
loved
ones.
Friends
and
family
of
those
who
are
using
substances
dhec
is
a
part
of
this.
F
F
So
I
hope
that,
as
we
begin
this
discussion
and
continue
our
efforts
around
prevention
and
treatment
which
are
so
important
and
which
we're
have
been
working
hard
on,
that,
we
will
begin
to
consider
harm
reduction
not
only
with
naloxone
but
through
other
methods
as
well
in
this
discussion.
So
thanks
again
to
louise,
who
had
to
drop
off
and
jennifer
or
anyone
else.
If
you
have
anything
you'd
like
to
share,
I
would
love
that
now.
E
H
B
F
B
F
F
If
you
have
symptoms,
so
the
big
news,
since
we
last
met,
is
the
introduction
of
the
bivalent
vaccine
for
covid,
so
that
includes
the
original
vaccine
formulation,
as
well
as
an
omicron
subvariant
for
ba
form,
ba5
component
as
well.
We're
expecting
that
we've
already
received
some
of
our
shipment
of
dhak.
Hopefully
our
partners
are
also
receiving
it
this
week
and
we'll
be
ready
to
begin
administering
it
at
the
end
of
this
week
or
or
shortly
thereafter.
F
F
It's
both
pfizer
and
moderna,
and
appointments
can
be
made
just
like
they
have
been
previously
with
our
health
care
systems,
with
our
pharmacies
at
dhec
and
and
so
that
is
expected
to
be
available
within
the
coming
days
and
do
recommend
that
as
we
go
into
the
fall
where
we
do
are
concerned
about
a
possible
future
surge.
So
that's
my
covet
update
I'll
move
on
to
to
monkey
pots
or
mpox.
F
We
are
continuing
to
see
cases
in
south
carolina.
We've
had
119
total
26
of
those
in
the
low
country
region
and
a
few
changes
we've
seen
here.
We've
started,
giving
the
vaccine
called
genios
intradermally
sort
of
like
a
ppd
is
given
to
test
for
tuberculosis
that
allows
us
to
stretch
our
supply
of
the
vaccine
and
the
eligibility
was
then
able
to
be
sort
of
widened.
F
So
those
vaccines
are
still
available
only
at
dhec
as
of
today,
but
soon
the
ryan
white
wellness
center,
with
road
for
saint
francis,
as
well
as
truesdale
medical
center
with
palmetto
community
care,
we'll
have
vaccines
available
as
well,
and
we
very
much
appreciate
their
partnership
in
helping
us
to
to
reach
the
community
that
may
be
higher
at
risk
for
appointments
at
dhec.
The
caroline,
which
is
how
anyone
gets
appointments
for
anything
at
dhec,
is
the
way
to
get
an
appointment
for
the
for
the
genius
vaccine.
F
F
That
many
of
you
may
know
from
her
leadership
during
the
coven
epidemic
will
be
joining
me
for
that,
and
that's
really
open
to
all
in
the
community.
Paul
will
share
the
link,
there's
a
qr
code
in
the
bottom
right
corner.
You
just
use
that
to
register.
It
is
free
to
register,
but
but
please
do
so
and
there'll
be
a
way
to
join
privately
if
anyone
doesn't
want
their
name
used
and
there
will
be
sort
of
a
chat
that
the
questions
will
be
able
to
be
asked.
F
And
lastly,
I
just
wanted
to
give
some
some
kudos
to
our
fast
track
cities.
Charleston
initiative.
We
will
be
not
I
shawna
hastie
who's.
Our
preventive
health,
social
worker
will
be
going
to
seville,
spain,
in
october,
to
present
on
our
work
as
part
of
part
of
their
yearly
conference
and
she'll
be
presenting
on
our
the
future.
Is
you
billboard
campaign
that
happened
last
year
was
developed
the
year
before
with
some
outreach
funds?
F
Billboards
are
along
5,
26
and
26
really
over
sort
of
december
to
february
of
this
year,
and
now
we're
working
on
sort
of
the
next
step
of
that
campaign,
which
will
last
likely
be
a
social
media
outreach,
either
through
facebook
and
instagram
or
potentially
on
some
of
the
dating
apps
that
are
used
in
our
communities
and
the
futures.
You
really
looks
back
at:
u
equals
u
or
undetectable
equals
untransmittable
and
again
we're
talking
about
stigma
around
substance
use
disorder.
F
This
is
really
addressing
stigma
around
around
hiv,
so
I
hope
that
perhaps
shawna
will
be
able
to
come
next
month
and
present
her
presentation
from
seville
and
share
with
us
some
of
the
feedback
that
she
received
and
the
kudos
to
to
charleston
and
and
the
work
done
here
on
on
addressing
the
hiv
epidemic
and
worldwide
press
for
that
coming
up
soon.
I
think
I'll
stop
there
and
happy
to
take
any
questions.
A
F
Yes,
in
fact,
the
original
formulations
of
pfizer
moderna
are
no
longer
sort
of
fda
approved
so
going
forward
for
boosters.
It
will
only
be
this
bivalent
vaccine
available
for
the
original
for
anyone
who
hasn't
had
their
initial
tudo
series,
the
original
formulation
will
be
used
for
that,
but
anyone
getting
the
booster
pfizer
moderna
going
forward
once.
F
F
F
We
will
again
be
working
with
schools
across
the
low
country
region
to
provide
flu
vaccines
in
our
schools,
but
charleston
county
school
district
actually
now
has
the
ability
to
provide
their
own
vaccines,
and
so
this
year,
for
the
first
time
ellen
nets,
who's
the
lead
nurse
there
at
charleston,
county
school
district
and
her
team
will
be
doing
their
own
school
located
vaccine
clinics.
Dhec
will
work
with
charter
schools
and
private
schools
who
may
not
be
covered
under
charleston
county
school
district.
F
C
Thank
you,
and-
and
thank
you,
dr
richardson,
as
always
for
your
great
updates.
I
did
want
to
share
with
everyone
just
some
kind
of
a
milestone
in
a
way,
and
coincidentally,
saw
an
article
this
morning
asking
the
question
you
know
is
covin
done
or
will
it
go
away,
and
it
said
sorry,
no,
it's
just
going
to
be
a
part
of
life
for
all
of
us
and
and
we'll
get
used
to
just
like
we
have
with
flu
shots
and
flu
vaccines.
C
C
We've
been
providing
them
over
at
lockwood
the
former
dmv
headquarters
that
they've
been
open
now
well
over
a
year,
I'm
not
sure
when,
when
they
first
moved
into
there,
I'd
have
to
go
back
and
check
and-
and
I
I'll
ask
them
when
they
they
close
out,
but
I
bet
they.
They
are
approaching.
100
000
doses
vaccines
that
they
administered
at
that
location.
C
So
we
we
thank
them
for,
for
that
incredible
service
they
provided.
I
know
many
others
provided
services
over
the
last
couple
of
years,
but
that
was
a
partnership
with
the
city
and
you
know
an
important
and
important
one
to
be
able
to
get
the
vaccine
out
to
folks
at
no
charge.
So
if,
if
you
you
want
to
one
last
booster
from
them
at
an
easy
place,
I
think
this
is
the
last
week
they'll
be
open
over
there
at
lockwood.
B
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
Anybody
else
on
this
community
health
update
all
right.
Well,
I'll
move
on
to
other
community
updates,
and
I
know
since
we
met
last
charleston
county
schools
has
been
in
full
force.
So
if
she
would
I'd
like
to
call
on
maggie
to
kind
of
give
us
an
update
from
charleston
county
schools,
please
maggie
dangerfield.
I
Hi
everybody
thank
you
so
much
councilman
shealy.
Yes,
we
are
in
full
force
really
exciting
to
have
all
the
students
back
in
our
buildings.
Our
first
day
was
august
17th
and
then
the
following
week
we
had
our
head
start
and
cd
students
do
a
staggered
entry,
so
we've
got
all
students
in
the
buildings.
I
believe
we
are
caught.
We
are
past
our
I'm
just
checking
before
I
say
this.
We
are
past
our
10-day
count
and
just
kind
of
in
the
realm
of
the
community
health
update
piece.
I
We
have
restarted
the
covid19
dashboard
that
we
had
going
for
the
previous
two
years
that
are
tracking
the
number
of
positive
cases
in
our
schools
that
can
be
found
on
our
website.
If
you
just
go
on
the
site,
actually,
google
copic,
19
dashboard,
that's
not
showing
close
contacts
or
anything
like
that.
This
is
just
a
number
of
positive
cases
and
we
are
working
to
update
that
daily.
I
I
Additionally,
our
students
also
improved
their
overall
average
by
more
than
four
percentage
points
from
last
year.
Similar
results
on
sc
ready
for
ela
and
about
49
for
the
sc
ready
math,
which
is
almost
10
points
better
than
the
state
average.
So,
despite
the
challenges
of
the
pandemic-
and
you
know,
learning
loss
that
the
whole
nation
has
seen
we're
still
locally
doing
really
well
on
on
the
state
in
the
national
scale.
So
there's
more
information.
B
J
J
J
J
As
I
said,
prizes
lots
of
team
events,
there's
a
walk,
that's
been
planned
if
you're
really
up
to
it,
you
can
do
a
five
kilometer
walker
and
I
think
it's
a
five
mile
walk.
Sorry,
I
get
confused
with
the
european
and
the
and
the
american
miles
and
kilometers
or
there's
also
shorter
walks
as
well
and
paul.
I'm
happy
to
send
out,
send
you
a
flyer,
perhaps
after
the
meeting,
which
can
then
be
shared
and
gives
you
all
the
information
for
the
event.
D
K
Hi
everyone.
I
wanted
to
announce
an
event
that
my
department
at
the
citadel
is
putting
on
with
conjunction
with
louie's
kids.
It's
called
big
dog
little
dog.
It
is
a
family
run
program,
so
louie's
kids
is
a
local
nonprofit
that
works
with
families,
to
empower
them
to
take
charge
of
their
health
and
fitness.
So
we're
doing
a
eight-week
training
program,
that
is,
for
families
that
are
interested
in
preparing
for
the
culmination
of
this
training.
The
eight-week
training
begins
in
october
10th.
K
It
will
be
monday,
wednesday
nights
from
6
30
to
7
feet.
7
30
p.m.
In
mount
pleasant
at
waterfront
park.
It
will
culminate
in
december.
I
think,
on
the
11th,
with
the
reindeer
run,
5k
so
you'll
probably
see
a
bunch
of
us
dressed
up
as
reindeer
for
that,
but
we
have
volunteers
from
the
citadel.
In
terms
of
my
cadets,
we
also
have
volunteers
from
cfc
and
musc,
so
we
are
putting
out
a
call
for
volunteers
for
anyone
that
wants
to
be
part
of
that
so
paul.
A
Paul
october,
the
second
that
stony
field
will
be
the
kids
run
and
family
festival,
starting
from
two
to
six.
It's
stoney
field
and
it's
gonna
be
dry
weather.
The
roads
are
gonna,
be
good
and
clear,
and
we're
gonna
have
a
good
good
activity
of
day
for
family
members
and
kids
at
hampton
at
stoney
field.
E
E
In
the
interim,
our
medical
director,
dr
bank,
some
of
you
might
know
he's
going
to
be
taking
over
in
the
interim.
While
we
are
looking
for
a
new
director.
So
that's
lots
of
things
happening
in
colombia.
This
coming.
Let's
see
it's
tuesday
september
13th,
so
dr
funsell
from
charleston
center
and
I
are
a
integral
part
of
the
criminal
justice
coordinating
council
and
we
are
going
to
be
doing
a
virtual
spotlight
on
charleston
county's,
behavioral
health
resources.
It's
an
hour
community
justice
forum,
it'll
be
online
and
paul
I'll.
E
Send
you
the
flyer.
I
think
I
have
the
draft
flyer,
but
I
don't
know
if
I
have
the
actual
flyer,
but
we'll
be
talking
for
an
hour
just
sharing
information
on
the
resources
for
alcohol
and
drug
and
mental
health
treatments
in
our
area,
and
and
also
going
talking
about
the
new
teddy
pryor
social
services
hub.
So
that'll
be
on
next
tuesday
from
six
to
seven
and
other
news.
E
E
The
other
call
center
for
south
carolina
is
run
by
mental
health,
america,
greenville
and
currently
they're
answering
their.
Their
answer
rate
was
about
80
percent
before
we
what
they
rolled
out
the
988
number
on
july
17th,
and
so
now
their
answer
rate's
gone
down
to
about
72
percent
because
calls
have
increased
they
took
about.
I
think
3
700
calls
in
july
so
calls
are
increasing
just
because
of
the
news
around
it
and
everything.
E
E
So
when
people
go
to
crisis,
centers
or
hospitals
or
treatment,
centers
that
that
we
do
a
better
job
of
following
up
with
people
trying
to
continue
to
connect
them
with
resources,
because,
as
many
of
you
know,
we
lose
a
lot
of
people
they're
not
interested
in
following
up
with
treatment.
So
that's
exciting.
E
Send
you
again
the
invites
for
these,
but
we
do
have
a
oyster
roast
on
october
15th
that
is
going
to
be
on
daniel
island
and
a
fishing
tournament
on
october,
8th,
which
will
be
on
edisto
and
the
fishing
tournament.
I
think
the
the
people
who
set
it
up
are
donating
to
three
different
charities,
so
I'll
send
all
that
information
to
you
there's
also
a
nami
walk
on,
I
think
the
8th
of
october.
A
I
want
to
introduce
lauren
greene
lauren
is
a
public
health,
major
interning
with
us
this
semester.
She
is
a
charlestonian
and
is
going
to
be
helping
us
look
at
our
health
disparities
and
in
those
neighborhoods
that
we
had
talked
about
earlier
and
doing
a
lot
of
work.
She
wants
to
go
into
epidemiology
after
she
finishes
the
college
and
the
coming
this.
A
C
H
Yes,
sir,
okay,
good
morning,
everyone,
I'm
lauren
greene,
I'm
a
senior
at
college,
I'm
graduating
in
spring
and
no
may
of
2023,
and,
like
mr
readers
was
saying,
I
want
to
get
into
infectious
disease
epidemiology,
and
I
also
want
to
look
at
environmental
justice
as
well,
and
I
also
want
to
get
into
well.
I
guess
I
would
also
tie
into
it
by
environmental
health
as
well,
so
I'm
just
really
passionate
about
public
health
and
I'm
excited
for
this
internship
and
what
I'm
going
to
learn
so.
