We don't have health or justice, and to be a thriving Colorado and totally fulfill our potential as a state, we need both health and justice, and so working to solve one half of the problem is tied to working to solve the other half of the problem
What happens when mental health meets the criminal justice system? In this episode of 'Beyond the Bars', Vincent Atchity, Executive Director of Mental Health Colorado, sheds light on this critical intersection. With a background that includes roles in public health and health equity, Vincent shares his extensive experience and insights into the challenges and solutions for mental health within the justice system.
He delves into the Bridges Program, explaining its impact and how it helps those entangled in both mental health issues and legal troubles. Vincent also discusses how the pandemic has influenced mental health and offers practical advice for coping. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding how community partnerships can make a real difference in mental health outcomes. Whether you're personally affected or just curious about the topic, Vincent's conversation provides valuable information and hope.
