In Graham County, Arizona, the Graham County Health Department has partnered with the Southeast Arizona Health Education Center to address the lack of mental and behavioral healthcare services. Their project, supported by the National Institutes of Health, aims to improve access to these services in the area, according to the Graham County.

Proyecto Juntos, funded by a National Institutes of Health ComPASS award, aims to improve mental health services in Graham County. A meeting to review project findings and discuss service improvements is set for March 18 at 2:00 p.m. at the Graham County General Services Building. Details are on Graham County's website.

Graham County's official website states, "This is a community lead project, therefore, participation and input from our community stakeholders is invaluable to this project’s success." The mental health initiative, Proyecto Juntos, aims to improve healthcare services by addressing local needs and may serve as a model for rural mental health support, as stated by the Graham County.
