An estimated half million Coloradans are dependent on alcohol or have used illicit drugs. Almost 12 percent of Coloradans report poor mental health, according to the 2017 Colorado Health Access Survey, up from about 10 percent in 2015. Colorado ranks 43rd of the 50 states plus the District of Columbia on a 2018 mental health index from Mental Health America, based on 15 measures. About one of 13 Coloradans (7.6 percent) did not get needed mental health services in 2017.

Task Force Children’s Behavioral Health Safety Net Long-Term Competency

Based on the 2018 State of Mental Health in America Report for children and youth specifically, Colorado currently ranks 48th in the country when analyzing several indicators including the prevalence of mental illness and access to care. Among the most disturbing statistics is that suicide is the leading cause of death among Coloradoans between 10 and 24 years old. Over 30 sources of previously documented needs and recommendations related to reforming and strengthening Colorado’s behavioral health services and supports for children and youth have been reviewed and studied. Goals around governance; finance; quality improvement; care coordination; service array; and access, screening and assessment offer a starting point.
