Recent Boulder County Public Health surveillance data and a community survey
indicate ongoing challenges with mental health in our community. More
than 11 percent of adult residents said their mental health was not good
at least 8 of the past 30 days and 37 percent of our older adults reported
feeling depressed. Among our high school students, almost 5 percent had
attempted suicide.
In the second presentation of our five-part series on mental health issues
impacting the Boulder community, Susan Motika, Director of Strategic Initiatives
for Boulder County Public Health, will provide an overview of top mental
health issues and concerns within Boulder County. She will be followed
by a panel discussion featuring leaders from Boulder Community Health,
Boulder Valley School District and Mental Health Partners, each discussing
their organization's current focus and future plans.
