Originally from Southern California, Lucas spent the last decade living in New York City, which is where he started his journalism career. He's been an audio journalism junkie for as long as he can remember, but really fell in love with reporting radio news at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, where he received his master's degree.
Over the next year, KSJD is going to be bringing you more news about health, mental health and prevention in our community as part of a bi-weekly health and prevention report. This week, Lucas Brady Woods spoke with Stephanie Allred, the senior clinical director at Axis Health in Cortez, Colorado, about the mental health challenges facing the local community and some of the resources available to help.
