The Need for Local Mental Health Resources

Currently, Brazoria County has no psychiatric beds. Through conversations with hospitals, counselors, educators, businesses, and law enforcement, it has become clear: we cannot continue to let this lack of essential care persist. For those experiencing mental health crises, the absence of local in-patient care puts families, emergency responders, and surrounding health systems under significant strain.
