Ashe County, NC, a rural mountain community with a median age of 50, faces significant health challenges, including high rates of chronic disease and mental health concerns. The county’s suicide rate (22.3 per 100,000) far exceeds the state target, exacerbated by stigma and limited access to care. This project proposes a community-based primary care intervention to enhance mental health awareness, establish peer support networks, and implement targeted programs. By engaging local organizations and incorporating resident feedback, this initiative aims to address Ashe County’s mental health crisis with culturally responsive, community-driven solutions.
