Before Crisis: What Early Intervention Really Means
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Renée Hopfner (Empire Company Limited) and Adam Starkman (Canada’s Children’s Hospital Foundations) unpack what early intervention actually means, why it's becoming an urgent priority across Canada, and what happens when children and families don't get support until they're already in crisis. The episode highlights system gaps and the promise of proactive, prevention-focused care.
