Introducing Rosecrance's new podcast series, On Your Radar

Each in-depth episode will feature timely, educational subjects regarding substance use and mental health.

Simply put, substance use and mental health issues are on the rise. COVID-19 has forced us into isolation, magnifying these issues for some and removing the opportunity for assistance and support.  Teens are particularly vulnerable to the behavioral health effects of the pandemic and in need of support. For professionals or loved ones seeking guidance and information, we offer the new Rosecrance podcast series, “On Your Radar.”

Featuring Rosecrance experts and hosted by WGN radio personality John Williams, On Your Radar provides up-to-date commentary covering a range of relevant topics.

Each in-depth episode will feature timely, educational subjects regarding substance use and mental health issues. The first series, titled: Teens in Crisis will shed light on the current struggles with teens navigating a COVID-19 world.
