In the 2025 BHS Annual Report, we show our community how we are honoring our commitment to well-being and Larimer County’s dedicated behavioral health tax.
In Larimer County, across our communities, we care about each other. We’re committed to building a community where support is always available and everyone has access to the care
they need to thrive.
Behavioral health has long faced challenges — limited funding and increasing demand — but, together, we can turn challenges into opportunities. Through local funding, collaboration, and a shared commitment to one another, we’re making a difference.
In 2018, 61% of Larimer County voters chose to invest in behavioral health by passing a 20-year, 0.25% sales tax. That means that every time we spend $100, 25 cents goes directly toward strengthening behavioral health services in our community. The tax is in effect until Dec. 31, 2038, and would require renewal to continue our investment in the wellbeing of all who work, play and live here.
