Summary of Request

Mendocino County receives funding from the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) and each county must prepare and submit a Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plan and Annual Update for MHSA Programs. The 2023-2026 Plan is based on a needs assessment within the Mental Health Services community of Mendocino County and reflects the stakeholder feedback combined with the direction of the Behavioral Health Advisory Board. A Request for Proposals for services was conducted for Community Services and Supports and Prevention and Early Intervention programs with the MHSA. Programs selected through this process and subsequent contract negotiations are reflected in this plan.

 

MHSA served 6306 unduplicated clients at a cost of $1,521.67 per client in FY 23-24

 

The purpose of this Update to the Annual Update is to provide transparency with the DHCS Program Review Conducted in Spring of 2025. All changes to this plan are included as appendices to address specific findings within the Program Review.
