5 Bites – Understanding the Social Drivers of Health (SDOH) in Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Primary Prevention
Healthy People 2030 defines the Social Determinants of Health as “the conditions in the environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks.” What does this mean for primary prevention efforts?
