We are so thankful to all the help Ian Skoglund provided as our Community Outreach Intern. Ian studies at the University of Minnesota Duluth and has two majors, public health and statistics!

Ian helped with our perinatal substance use disorder grant, child and teen check up programming and our care navigation grant programming through the development of materials, patient and provider outreach, and the collation of data. We are so impressed by his work and happy attitude and can’t wait to see what he does next!

Wilderness Health has learned a lot through our Enhancing Outcomes for Pregnant/Postpartum families impacted by Substance Use Disorder awarded by the Minnesota Department of Health. Most recently Dr. Cresta Jones and Julie Seitz, MSW spoke on substance use disorder at our Demystifying Perinatal Substance Use Disorder event.

They shared insightful information on what substance use disorder is and how substance use disorder can be treated. We've highlighted the 5 lessons that stood out to us!
