Listen "21.Addiction, Poverty, and Medicaid: Getting Sober In The Trenches"
Episode Synopsis
Sam Davis sits down with Eli Swan, Recovery Peer Coordinator, friend, and man in long-term sobriety. Eli isn’t speaking from theory—he’s out in the trenches every day, walking with people who have no money, no family stability, no safety net, and often generations of addiction behind them.
Together, Sam and Eli unpack:
• What’s working in the Medicaid system when it comes to addiction recovery
• Where Medicaid is falling short for the most vulnerable people
• The reality of families shaped by generational trauma and substance use
• The struggles people face when they leave Medicaid-funded treatment
• What could be done differently to support lasting recovery
This is an honest look at how the recovery system serves — and fails — those who need it most. 👉 Sponsored by Intervention On Call — providing free family support groups, on-demand virtual coaching and strategy sessions, and in-person formal intervention cases.
