Behavioral Health Dashboard
“Behavioral Health” is the preferred term for a person’s overall mental well-being, and can include addiction, depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, or other psychological concerns. A person’s behavioral health has a large ripple effect on their daily life, family, friends, and the community. Someone who is consistently struggling with behavioral health often times finds themselves involved in the criminal justice system or other governmental systems.
Just like physical health, recovery for behavioral health is possible and may require medication or therapy and has trained providers ready to help.
Updates:
All data gets updated quarterly following the Federal Grant Fiscal Year or as it becomes available.
OD Map data comes directly from law enforcement calls for service and is reliant on how dispatch and officers/deputies may label calls or reports.
