Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
November 7, 2017, Item 4(e), Approval of the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Annual Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plan for Fiscal Years (FY) 2017-18 through 2019-20; June 19, 2018, Item 4(al), Approval of MHSA Reversion Plan for FY 2018-20; April 9, 2019, Item 5(h), Approval of Annual Update to the MHSA Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan for FY 2017-2020.
Summary of Request:
Mendocino County receives funding from the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), or Proposition 63, which was enacted to address the urgent need for recovery-based, accessible, community-based mental health services in California. As outlined in Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) Section § 5847, each county must prepare and submit a Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plan and Annual Updates for MHSA programs. The Plan and each Update address MHSA’s five components - Community Services and Supports, Prevention and Early Intervention, Innovation, Capital Facilities and Technological Needs, and Workforce Education and Training - and make expenditure projections for each component per year. Further, WIC § 5848 specifies that each draft of the Plan must be circulated for public review and comment for at least 30 days and that the mental health board must conduct a public hearing at the close of the 30-day comment period.
Health and Human Services Agency, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS), drafted the 2019-20 Annual Update to Mendocino County’s Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plan based on input from six MHSA Forums over the course of Fiscal Year 2018-19 where feedback was collected from stakeholders as well as outcomes from services provided in Fiscal Year 2018-19. The Behavioral Health Advisory Board (BHAB) reviewed the final draft of the 2019-20 Annual Update and approved it for posting. The Update was then put out for Public Comment from July 18, 2019 through August 21, 2019. Comments from the public were collected during the Public Comment Period, and a Public Comment Hearing was held on August 21, 2019.
The 2019-20 Annual Update includes changes from the prior year’s approved plan. These changes include updated target number of clients served by programs, additional detail and clarity to program descriptions, and changes and additions to the County Demographic descriptions requested by stakeholders. These changes were initiated based on stakeholder and state review feedback to provide encased detail and clarity.
