What can Cleveland learn about the health systems in Baltimore?

Since becoming Commissioner of Health for Baltimore, Leanna Wen has launched a campaign against sugary beverages, has pushed research on fentanyl overdoses, and created laws that offer addicts treatment instead of jail time. Perhaps her most recognized program is Safe Streets, a program that engages returning citizens with deep community ties in treating gun violence as a contagious disease.
