From losing loved ones to losing jobs, the emotional and economic toll of this pandemic has been significant. Over 5,200 of our fellow Coloradans have died from COVID. Many local businesses have closed their doors for good. Unsurprisingly, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and suicide rates are up. According to Gallup, the number of Americans rating their mental health as “excellent” is at the lowest it’s been in decades.

Now more than ever, it’s time to focus on improving our mental health system in Colorado.
