New Series Highlights Behavioral Health in Covid Era

On Edge is a statewide series on how 2020’s confluence of crises has tested Coloradans’ mental health.

About the Project

Reporters Susan Greene and Tina Griego capture this extraordinary time in which a confluence of major crises have set Coloradans on edge, testing individuals, communities and an already overtaxed mental health care system.

Working with COLab partner journalists across the state and photographer Marc Piscotty, Greene and Griego share the lived experiences of everyday Coloradans as they grapple with the body blows dealt by the pandemic, the shaky economy, climate-change driven fire and drought, civil rights reckoning and a polarizing election.
