People seeking support for health and wellbeing now have access to CredibleMind, a free and confidential online resource available 24/7. CredibleMind offers users the opportunity to gain insights into mental health, learn new skills, take mental health assessments, and access an extensive library of wellbeing resources.
“We are thrilled to launch CredibleMind in Southwest Minnesota,” said Public Health Director Carol Biren. “This remarkable resource will provide residents in our communities with enhanced access to tools and resources necessary for prioritizing health and wellbeing.”
The 2025 Community Health Assessment revealed an increased demand for additional mental health resources in the region served by Southwest Health and Human Services as well as throughout the state. According to the 2023 Adult Health Survey, 29% of respondents in Southwest Minnesota reported experiencing a mental health condition.
Mental health encompasses more than just the negative experiences we encounter. It includes emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing. Factors such as job satisfaction, eating habits, sleep quality, and overall happiness also play a significant role in mental health.
CredibleMind features:
• Articles, podcasts, and videos covering various health-related topics
• Self-assessments on a range of subjects including mindfulness, depression, and personality traits
• Local community resources available to the sixcounty SWHHS service area.
Privacy including name, email address and responses is completely confidential through CredibleMind and is not shared with any organization. Aggregate data on number of users and most viewed topics will provide additional insight into future development of resources, but is not tracked by individual user.
All users who create an account and finish the assessment between November 15th and December 6th will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a $100 Amazon Gift Card from CredibleMind.
