Recovery Friendly Workplaces with David Shapiro

Dive into Episode #165 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest David Shapiro, a cultural anthropologist and sociologist who will share about the concept of Recovery Friendly Workplaces. A recovery-friendly workplace is an organization that actively supports employees in recovery from substance use disorders (SUDs) by fostering a safe, stigma-free environment and providing access to resources that promote long-term health, employment stability, and community well-being. Mr. Shapiro is not only a nationally recognized expert on the concept of recovery-friendly workplaces, but also, based on his lived experience, an advocate for workplaces that focus on treating substance use disorders and the people living with them in the same way they would treat someone with a medical condition.
