Summary of Request

Harwood Memorial Park DBA Laytonville Healthy Start provides important services for both the Community Services and Support (CSS) and the Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) subsections of the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA). Through the proposed Agreement, the Laytonville Healthy Start CSS program will provide valuable Outreach and Engagement to the community, to help individuals navigate mental illness, assessments, and referrals to other providers. This Outreach and Engagement is designed to help identify which services are needed and appropriate for the individual, and to connect them with the mental health network providers and Specialty Mental Health Services in Mendocino County. The PEI portion under the proposed Agreement includes prevention services such as general wellness classes, referral services, general help for navigating systems such as benefit applications, education, and stigma reduction activities. Services available through the CSS and PEI programs are sometimes the only accessible link to mental health services due to the geographic isolation experienced by Laytonville residents. These services are provided through MHSA and are part of the regulatorily required programs that all counties must provide with MHSA funds. Services provided by Laytonville Healthy Start, in conjunction with other MHSA providers, creates a network of mental health services throughout Mendocino County.

 

The proposed Agreement was held for signatures while waiting for preapproval of terms. Signatures from Laytonville Healthy Start were obtained on June 24, 2024; therefore, the proposed Agreement will start upon signing.
