    logo_nahealthFlagstaff AZ (March 11, 2020) – Improving behavioral health is the top priority for the 2020 Northern Arizona Community Health Grant cycle presented and funded by Northern Arizona Healthcare Foundation.

    “Our goal in 2020 is to award grants that boost community health, especially in the area of behavioral health,” said Rick Smith, President and CEO of the Northern Arizona Healthcare Foundation. “Indicators show that we can do much more to improve mental health in our region.”

    The incidence of substance abuse, suicide, accidents and assault in northern Arizona is higher than the state and national averages. Smith said these statistics, along with the 2017 report “Advancing Wellbeing in Northern Arizona: A Regional Health Equity Assessment,” indicate a need for better mental health among area residents.

    Foundation grants support community nonprofit health initiatives in one or more of these counties: Apache, Coconino, Mohave, Navajo, and Yavapai. This year, priority will be given to meritorious collaborative projects aimed at bettering behavioral health.

    One Bullet Away

    There’s a storm cloud coiling over America, and most don’t see it yet. But it’s there. Dark. Imminent. Unavoidable. Call it fate, call it consequence—but don’t call it fiction. The divide is real. And it’s calcifying by the hour.
