The New Canaan Community Foundation is addressing the local mental health crisis through its new Community Behavioral Health Fund. With alarming statistics revealing the prevalence of mental disorders, the fund aims to break down barriers to care, track local data, destigmatize mental health. It has already made substantial progress in raising funds to support programs like the New Canaan Urgent Assessment Program. Joining forces with the community, NCCF aims to create a resilient, well-being-centered community where mental health is a top priority.
