Why a health day matters
Wellness starts with community
Austin Public Health's 2025 Community Health Assessment found high rates of mental health distress across Travis County, along with cost and transportation barriers that keep many residents from getting care. Events like Vitals and Vibes bring information and support to people where they are, in a setting that feels safe and familiar.
Nearly 18%of Travis County adults reported a depression diagnosis between 2019 and 2023
