“To be sure, though, this crisis isn’t new. We’re losing more lives to mental health challenges than ever before, and the state of mental health in Colorado is worsened by the arrival of COVID-19.”
The novel coronavirus is inching Colorado toward a mental health crisis, write Erica Snow (portfolio director) and Jace Woodrum (senior officer of public opinion insights) of the Colorado Health Foundation. In this blog post, Snow and Woodrum offer mental health survey results, data revealing increased racial disparities, and encouragement for other philanthropic organizations to step up in this time of crisis.
