Pitkin County Public Health invites anyone who lives, works, and plays in Pitkin County to participate in two virtual Care Sessions, Oct. 20 & 24. The first session involves discussion on ways to improve access to care including mental health. The second session is focused on mitigation/adaptation to climate change. The sessions are part of Public Health’s effort to develop its Public Health Improvement Plan. The sessions will be held in English and Spanish. Click here for more information.
The background
Pitkin County Public Health conducted a community health assessment in the spring and summer of 2022 to understand the health of our community. This showed where we are doing well and where there are opportunities to improve. Two areas of opportunity are:
1. Access to health care, including mental health
2. Climate change
