🌟 Together, we’re making a difference! At CB State of Mind, we’ve connected over 400 community members to 4,800 FREE therapy sessions, empowering our neighbors in need. 🌈 Through our Green Light Campaign, 1,000+ households and businesses shine a light on mental health each year, showing support and raising awareness.

Now, more than ever, our Gunnison Valley community needs us – with suicide rates rising 50% this year, CB State of Mind stands as a free, ready resource. 🌱 Our mission? To end the stigma around mental health. In April, we lit up our community with 1,000 Green Lights and hosted 40+ Community Connection events to support well-being.

Because of our efforts, 82% of attendees feel more confident reaching out for help. This year, we launched our first trauma and grief group session, creating safe spaces for healing. 💚 We’re here to provide invaluable support to our community.
