Brain Wave
Course Corrections
In Colorado, as across the U.S., too many people in crisis and vulnerable to crisis are likelier to be criminalized than to be supported in successful recovery from crisis and healthful persistence and integration in the community. Mental Health Colorado’s Course Corrections initiative is working to change that by disentangling mental health and criminal justice. You do not need to be a policy expert to help—your voice can make the difference.
Community Speaking
Our speakers aren’t just experts—they are the policymakers, advocates, and innovators actively shaping a healthier health landscape for all Coloradans. Invite them to share their frontline insights with your community, school, or workplace.
