Our Mission:
To provide affordable, secure, and collaborative workspace for mental health providers in Teton County, Wyoming
Why:
According to Mental Health America’s 2022 ranking, Wyoming ranked 50th in the nation, meaning Wyoming has one of the highest prevalence of mental illness and lowest rates of access to care.
In addition to growing mental health concerns in the Teton County community, the price to rent or own office space has skyrocketed and many providers have been kicked out of their space or have found their rents have more than doubled, if not tripled. Qualitative interviews with local mental health providers have identified affordable, accessible, collaborative, and secure office space as one of their greatest needs.
The goal of The Mental Wellness Collaborative is to meet the growing mental health needs of the Teton County community by addressing the needs of mental wellness providers in this community by providing them with affordable, secure, and collaborative workspace.
By addressing the needs of mental health providers, we can better meet the mental health needs of our community
