Have a responsibility to expand rural mental health access

Leaders at the Rural Justice and Public Health Professionals Summit identified how limited resources present a unique challenge to rural communities trying to improve mental health services. Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch said rural professionals and leaders have an important role in addressing barriers to mental health services. "It's not the hand you're dealt," Crouch said. "It's how you play it that's important. But we have a responsibility to give people good cards to play." Source: WFYI News on 2024 Indiana Gubernatorial race , Oct 16, 2023

Increase healthcare funding, Indiana ranks 48th in spending

Healthcare funding is one aspect of quality of life Crouch pointed to as an area of improvement in Indiana and a focus for the upcoming state legislative session. "Indiana unfortunately ranks 48th in the country in terms of what we spend on public health," Crouch shared. "That is why this upcoming session that issue will be taken up by the General Assembly, because the Public Health Commission did a study on what steps we need to take to improve the health of Hoosiers."
