Inseparable, a mental health advocacy organization, has released a report titled “A Better Response” that highlights the need for improvement in Virginia’s 988 mental health crisis response service. According to the report, there is an 87% response rate to 988 calls in the state, indicating that there is room for enhancement in the current system. Bruce Cruser, the executive director of Mental Health Virginia, acknowledged the progress made in funding for mental health services in the state but emphasized that more efforts are necessary to further improve the system and provide better care for those in crisis.
Furthermore, the federal Health Resources and Services Administration has designated all of Virginia as experiencing a shortage of mental health professionals. This shortage further underscores the importance of improving mental health services in the state, as there may not be enough professionals available to meet the needs of those experiencing a crisis. It is clear that there is a need for continued investment and support in mental health services in Virginia to ensure that individuals in crisis receive the care and support they need.
