COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — It has almost been one year since the horrific shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs. One health organization in Colorado Springs said many people are seeking mental health services because of the trauma from the Club Q shooting.
Diversus Health received a grant for more than $600,000 in federal funds from the Colorado Department of Health And Environment. Jennifer Herman is the Grants Strategy Director for Diversus Health. Herman said the money helps Diversus Health hire more mental health experts such as clinicians and peer specialists.
Diversus Health staff said these services are necessary because many people at the club that night are suffering from long-term impacts to their mental health. “It's been different, typing to find a new normal and learn how to cope with things, it's a challenge, but I am taking it day by day,” Gamblin said.“It's been a hard struggle, I am in therapy, but the PTSD is unfortunately real,” Gamblin said.“I went to a concert where they have pyrotechnics, I knew there were pyrotechnics and still have a panic attack,” Gamblin said.
