Tackling Mental Health Barriers with Chad Moses and Denny Kolsch

We need to understand what gets in the way of people finding the help they need and deserve and what we can do to be part of eliminating those barriers.

The episode goes beyond individual challenges to discuss grassroots efforts that can improve access to mental health care.
Chad and Denny encourage listeners to get involved in local task forces and community initiatives aimed at making mental health resources more available.
