What happens when someone walks into care and doesn’t understand the language, or the system around them?

In this episode of the Horizon podcast, Roland Williams and Jen Slusser-MacTernan unpack what it really takes to create healthcare environments that are inclusive, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed.

They dive into the real work behind CLAS (Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services), not just as a checklist, but as a way of honoring lived experience, building trust, and ultimately improving outcomes.

This one’s for the providers, policy thinkers, and community builders who believe that belonging is a prerequisite for healing.

🎧 Listen and let us know: What’s one step you’ve seen make care more equitable in your setting?

Parenting a young person navigating questions about identity, mental health, or substance use can feel overwhelming. You want to be their safe place, but sometimes, they want to talk to someone else.

That doesn’t mean you’ve failed. And they have somewhere to go where they’re seen, respected, and held without judgment.

At Project Eden, we create that space for LGBTQIA+ youth and their allies to ask questions, process feelings, and just be themselves.

When a teen opens up about substance use, your reaction matters more than you think.

It’s natural to feel scared, disappointed, or unsure of what to say. But those first few moments set the tone.

The most effective response? ⤵️
Stay calm. Ask open-ended questions. Listen without judgment.

That doesn’t mean ignoring the seriousness of what they’re sharing. It means creating space to understand what’s underneath it without shutting down the conversation before it starts.

At Horizon, we work with families to build trust, even in tough moments. Because curiosity leads to connection, and connection opens the door to change.

If you’re a parent, caregiver, or educator, what’s one thing you wish you’d known about talking to teens about substance use?

Healing happens on full stomachs. 💙

At Cronin House, recovery isn’t just about clinical care, but creating community. That includes hot meals, conversations over tacos, and moments that remind you you’re not alone.

Shoutout to our amazing staff who make these meals with care and heart. Because the little things are never little.

Recovery isn’t always easy. But when someone feels supported, that first step becomes possible, and so does every one that follows.

We’re grateful for the clients who trust us and the team that walks beside them.

The most effective way for families to support a loved one in early recovery is by participating in family therapy or education.

Why? Because addiction doesn’t just affect one person. It impacts the entire family system. Family support programs offer a space to understand what recovery really looks like, learn how to communicate effectively, and begin healing together.

Recovery is hard, but no one should have to go through it alone.

💬 Have you or someone you know been through family support during recovery? What made a difference?

Over the past few weeks, our staff have opened up about what gave them hope when they were kids, when they needed direction, and when life felt uncertain.

Today, we’re bringing those voices together. 💙

From strong parents and steady teachers to quiet reminders that tomorrow can still be better, these moments shape how we show up for others. They remind us that healing is possible. That we’re never really alone.

🎥 Watch and listen.
➡️ Then ask yourself: What gives you hope?

"I believe I can do this.” 🖤

When someone in recovery says that out loud, it means they’ve found more than a program... they’ve found people who believe in them.

The personal connection, the real-life experience, the deep understanding — it all helps someone move from surviving to truly healing.

To the team at Cronin House Residential, thank you for creating a space where men begin to believe in themselves again.

Sometimes, hope has a way of showing up when you need it most.

For Jen, it came from her fifth-grade teacher, a steady presence who created structure and safety when home wasn’t. And it came from the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose belief in humanity still fuels her hope for the world.

One reminded her that she mattered. The other reminded her that we all do.

💙 Who gave you a sense of hope when the world felt uncertain?

11/24/2025

Hope doesn’t mean pretending everything’s fine.

For Thomas, hope shows up when a community is honest about what’s not working, and still chooses to come together to create change.

💙 What would hope look like in your community?
