Mental health was at the forefront of everyone’s minds as the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in Summit County, in particular for those at Building Hope, a local nonprofit organization dedicated to creating a better mental health system, reducing stigma and improving access to mental health resources.
Building Hope wasn’t slowed down by the pandemic. At the Breckenridge Town Council work session Tuesday, July 27, Executive Director Jennifer McAtamney presented a summary of the organization’s work over the last year and a half.
“It is because of the community support prior to the pandemic, back in 2017 (and) 2018 when this community came together and decided that they were going to do something about mental health, that we were able to activate the way we were over the last year,” McAtamney said.
