Sedgwick County mental health services are in a crucial situation. COMCARE, the largest mental health center in the state, now sits at only 58 percent of its usual staffing. More than 200 positions are open after a lot of employees left over the past year. Executive director Joan Tammany says a big reason workers are leaving is pay. On top of that, after serving as grief counselors in many ways during the pandemic, some workers need to take care of their own mental health now.
