A national report on the state of mental health in the United States indicates that Kansas has made significant progress – moving from 51st in the 2022 rankings – essentially last among all 50 states and the District of Columbia – to 22nd in the 2024 rankings. Elaine Johannes, the Kansas Health Foundation’s Distinguished Professor of Community Health at Kansas State University, says there are a number of reasons for the state’s jump in the rankings, including policy changes by the Kansas legislature that opened up better access to mental health care and resiliency among the people of Kansas.
