Join Wayne State University School of Social Work Professor Amy Watson and fellow scholars scholars Michael Compton, M.D., and Leah Pope, for an engaging conversation about their new book, Entangled, which explores how individuals with chronic mental illness are routinely—and needlessly—caught in America’s misdemeanor system, with little benefit to themselves or the broader public. The discussion will be moderated by Ryan Levi, producer of the podcast Tradeoffs. 

Several members of the CBHJ community contributed to Entangled, including Jessica Gaskin, M.S.W., Kaitlyn Kok, B.S., Erin Comartin, Ph.D., L.M.S.W., Hosanna Fukuzawa, M.S.W., and Leonard Swanson, M.S.W.
