1/ NEW from our Rehab Reporting Network:

A new investigation from @seattleweekly's @M_Hellmann has uncovered allegations of exploitation and assault at a work-based treatment facility called Seadrunar in Seattle. seattleweekly.com/news/the-seedy…

2/ Late last year, @briOKC and @joewertz spoke to former residents at Firstep, a work rehab in Oklahoma City, who claimed the program kept or attempted to take a portion of their disability benefits from workers’ comp after they were injured on the job. readfrontier.org/stories/workin…
