This discussion board relates to this week’s learning objective: Examining health care and health care policy in America. Discussing the mental health care system in America. Reviewing substance abuse’s effect on society, the human body, human development, and relationships. Additionally, Social Work skills, values, and ethics will be discussed in regards to substance abuse, health care, and mental health care.

The purpose of this discussion board is to help you become more familiar with how individuals and families are treated by their local health care, mental health care, and substance abuse treatment systems. Policies, treatment programs, and Social Work roles will be applied to the case study.
