Summit County Health Department creates new position to deal with substance abuse and mental health

The Summit County Health Department's recently created a new position dedicated to mental health and substance abuse, signifying a critical step in the community's efforts toward upgrading the services that are offered in the county. Last week, the Health Department began advertising for a mental health and substance abuse coordinator to fill a temporary, 12-month contract position that does not currently exist. Rich Bullough, director of the Health Department, said additional capacity is needed within the department in order to "really improve and impact the health of the community" in the areas of mental health and substance abuse. The county's mental health needs assessment survey in November identified the community's gaps in services and outlined strategic directives for closing them. Bullough said he hopes the new mental health and substance abuse coordinator will help facilitate partnerships within the community and continue moving the strategic planning process forward.
