*Governor Gordon to host the the third Governor’s Mental Health Summit on October 2*

 

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Following successful events held the past two years, Governor Mark Gordon is hosting the third Governor’s Mental Health Summit in Casper on October 2. The free, in-person event will feature discussions and workshops focusing on mental health awareness and support. 

At a proclamation signing recognizing September as Suicide Prevention Month, Governor Gordon emphasized the continuing work to advance mental health reform that is occurring statewide.  

“Since the first mental health summit, we have made progress in raising awareness of this issue and how mental health challenges impact our communities,” Governor Gordon said. “We know that we have more work to do, and this summit provides an opportunity to come together and share the important work that’s taking place.” 

The Governor’s WY We Care initiative [ [link removed] ], announced earlier this year, is a collaborative effort that includes all three branches of state government, local community teams, and private sector providers. The initiative aims to reduce Wyoming’s suicide rate, improve access to behavioral health services, and strengthen the state’s behavioral healthcare workforce.

With support from the Hughes Charitable Foundation and Align, the Fall 2024 Governor’s Mental Health Summit begins at *7:30 AM on October 2* at Events at the M,  234 E 1st St. in Casper. A full agenda will be available in the coming days. Free tickets are limited and are available here.  [ [link removed] ]
