Subject: Fwd: Behavioral Health Needs Analysis Project and Survey
 

The Colorado Department of Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health is conducting a Behavioral Health Needs Analysis Project to help plan for the future behavioral health (mental health and substance use) needs in the State. The purpose of this project is to conduct an analysis of existing behavioral health resources in the State of Colorado and project future needs for both state hospital beds as well as community-based services.  The study is being conducted by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE), Mental Health Program and will identify and assess existing public behavioral health resources, which will inform future strategic planning recommendations. These recommendations for the strategic positioning of the Office of Behavioral Health will be based upon a systems analysis that takes into account the many stakeholder variables associated with an evolving behavioral health care system.

 

A critical component of this study is the Open Mic Survey, which is an electronic survey that will provide interested Coloradans the opportunity to provide input into this project.  This link below takes you to the survey and we encourage you to share your perceptions and experiences to help us understand what is working well and what is needed, as well as provide us with creative solutions to improve the behavioral health system in Colorado. The survey will be open until the end of October, 2014. Please share this link with others you believe may be interested in providing us with their input. Thank you!
