WOW! What an incredible night as hundreds of Summit County locals gathered to watch the Paradise Paradox in order to raise awareness about the mountain town mental health crisis. Something that all of us know all too well…<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>Thank you to all of our community partners for being a part of our wellness fair, to the Town of Silverthorne <\/span>@silverthornecolorado<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>@arapahoe_basin<\/span><\/a> for helping put on such a wonderful night and all the panel members listed below. This night wouldn’t have been as successful without everyone’s contributions!<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>Kellyn Ender – Building Hope Summit County<\/b>
<\/b>Alan Henceroth – Arapahoe Basin<\/b>
<\/b>Darla Whinston – Licenced Mental Health First Aid Instructor<\/b>
<\/b>Drew Mikita – Licenced Therapist<\/b>
<\/b>Chris Lindley – Vail Health<\/b><\/p>\n

While the panel did their best to answer as many questions as possible, we wanted to followup with some additional answers to the questions we did not get to at the event.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: It looks like there\u2019s been some amazing changes in improving access to mental health in Eagle County. What changes have been made here in Summit?<\/b><\/p>\n

A: Our priority remains increasing access to mental healthcare, education and stigma reduction. Here are a few of the mental health resources you can access in Summit County: –<\/span>Mental Health Navigation <\/span><\/a>–<\/span>Mental Health Trainings <\/span><\/a>–<\/span>SMART Team <\/span><\/a>– <\/span>Paragon Behavioral Health Connections<\/span><\/a> Mobile Crisis Response has also expanded their services to Summit County and can be dispatched through <\/span>Colorado Crisis Services<\/span><\/a>. Paragon also offers intensive In home Services, Crisis Stabilization, and more, filling a much needed gap in the higher level of care that has been missing in Summit County previously. –<\/span>Vail Health Behavioral Health<\/span><\/a> now serves Summit County residents.<\/span> Summit Community Care Clinic<\/span><\/a> has resources for youth and families within the school setting – School Based Health allows youth access to care without leaving the school day. The <\/span>Summit Wellness Hub<\/span><\/a> is available to serve Behavioral Health, Substance Use, and Medication Assisted Therapy needs for the community.<\/span> Building Hope Summit<\/span><\/a> also has a Scholarship program which offers access to 12 free therapy sessions to those who live or work in Summit County. Summit and Eagle County have worked together to approach our communities as a region – partnering to ensure that residents and workers in both communities have the access to care that is needed regionally. The approach and partnership has been to collaborate across the pass so that treatment is more accessible between our mountain towns rather than having to relocate or travel to the front range or Grand Junction, as has been the case in the past.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: I\u2019m concerned about monolingual Spanish speakers without insurance that need help in Summit beyond the sessions allotted to them by Building Hope. How can we assure they are receiving long term care for serious mental health concerns, including children who need to be seen in person?<\/b><\/p>\n

A: The <\/span>Vail Health Behavioral Health Frisco Health Center<\/span><\/a> is focusing on recruiting more bilingual providers and financial aid is available to the community. <\/span>Summit Community Care Clinic<\/span><\/a> also has bilingual therapists and offers discounted therapy within the School Based Health Centers for children and families within the School District. Insurance, documentation, or ability to pay are not a requirement to use SBHC. Building Hope’s Care Team can help you navigate your options once your scholarship has ended.

Q: What is Vail Resorts doing for mental health?\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
