First Lady Melania Trump attended a conference at the Thomas Jefferson University Hospital where she met with mothers and newborn babies who have been affected by the opioid crisis. She toured the Philadelphia hospital’s intensive care unit for newborns and visited with mothers who are in the medical facility’s treatment program, according to VOA News. Jefferson has been treating patients for drug use and overdose for the past 45 years.
Trump spoke to the attendees of the conference and thanked the hospital staff for all they are doing “for this very important issue” and discussed her own “Be Best” campaign in examining the effects the crisis has on children.
