BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COUNCIL


Healthcare Needs Assessment

2019 Comprehensive Community Needs Assessment
Poverty generates poor health and poor health generates poverty.
In every aspect of healthcare from being sick to getting care, from prevention to aftercare, people in poverty don’t fare as well as people in middle class or wealth.
​
The top three needs in behavioral healthcare for all respondents were:
  1. Treatment for Anxiety
  2. Treatment for Depression
  3. Treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
​
The table below shows the Key Poverty Indicators and Top Needs only for those respondents who have no healthcare coverage.
