Veterans at White Bird Clinic
Three of White Bird Clinic's IT Systems Administrators, Eric O'Toole and Jonathan Ross served - and Eric DeVall is still in service of - the US military. This episode we talk about their stories, how social work can bring people across socio-political boundaries to provide care, how working in the military has informed their work at White Bird Clinic and the high rate of unhoused US veterans.
