This week on Kentucky Focus with Scott Fitzgerald, we’re putting a spotlight on a growing concern across the Commonwealth—mental health care access and the insurance hurdles that are getting in the way. It’s Autism Awareness Month here in Kentucky, and while awareness is growing, so are the challenges. How far have we come in diagnosing and supporting those living with Autism—and how far do we still have to go? We’ll also introduce you to a new effort from the Mental Health Insurance Reform Task Force, led by the team at Bridge Counseling and Wellness. They’ve launched a powerful new platform where you—patients, families, and providers—can share your own insurance struggles, from denied treatments to surprise bills. Your story could be the key to real change.

Something big is happening in Kentucky — and it could change the future for thousands of children. In this episode of Kentucky Focus with Scott Fitzgerald, we pull back the curtain on two statewide efforts gaining momentum this month: the push for affordable education and the powerful voices rising during Child Abuse Prevention Month that could reshape how we support and protect Kentucky’s most vulnerable. Join us as we explore why hope begins — and action follows in the month of April.
