Mental Health America has released their State of Mental Health in America 2025 Report. 

The report highlights the latest national data and provides state-level rankings on mental health and wellbeing in the U.S. It serves as a collection of data across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, with the goal of providing a snapshot of mental health status among youth and adults, tracking changes in prevalence of mental health issues and access to mental health care, and understanding how changes in national data reflect the impact of legislation and policies.


The report highlights:

  • Prevalence of mental health and substance use issues;
  • Access to adequate insurance and mental health care; and
  • Which states have higher barriers in accessing mental health care.


Pennsylvania ranked 7th in the overall rankings, indicating a lower prevalence of mental illness and higher rates of access to care. Individually, PA was ranked 4th in access to care, 30th in prevalence of any mental illness, and 31st in mental health workforce availability.
