Strategic and systemic: A two-pronged approach to community well-being.

In Colorado, a partnership between the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office, Garfield County, and other local agencies offer a new online mental health resource that provides useful, vetted information and resources, and connects citizens with local mental health professionals. CredibleMind features support for citizens, first responders, and law enforcement through a variety of resources, tools, assessments, and evidence-based information.
