@1QLeadership Question: Should substance abuse in sports be viewed as more than just a disciplinary issue?
Ryan Cain, CEO of The Hope Desk, and Shelly Mullenix, Senior Associate AD for Health and Wellness at LSU, discuss the mechanics of providing mental health services for former LSU student-athletes. Mullenix talks about studying social work to further impact the people she has served for nearly three decades. Cain gives his story of recovery and how it led him to create The Hope Desk, which serves people dealing with similar issues that he dealt with.
Through the Tiger Legacy Care program, Mullenix hopes to help out any and all former LSU student-athletes that need help. Cain and The Hope Desk are expanding services to more schools throughout the country. - One Question Leadership Podcast - Tai M. Brown
