A Path Forward: Mental Health and the U.S. Pandemic Response

The COVID-19 pandemic presents a crisis of mental health in the United States (U.S.) alongside a crisis of infectious disease. Racial inequities in COVID-19 morbidity and mortality have brought health equity to the forefront of public health policy, exacerbating prior inequities in mental health care access and outcomes. This Commentary asserts that policymakers and advocates must prioritize mental health when responding to the pandemic. While the pandemic is an emergency of unprecedented scale, the authors argue that it also is an opportunity to implement broad-based mental health policy reforms in the U.S. that build on the successes of the Affordable Care Act and the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act. Guided by innovative state and local policies to promote population-level mental health, we outline a series of empirically grounded strategies for federal and state policymakers to promote mental health equity in the wake of COVID-19.
