Children in Colorado are in crisis.
So much so, that Children's Hospital Colorado, is calling it a "State of Emergency." It's not just in Colorado.
The CDC says, mental health related emergency department visits, involving kids, have increased since last March.
In 2019, E-D visits increased 24 percent for 5 to 11-year-olds, and 31 percent, with 12 to 17-year-olds, in 2020.
