The Behavioral Health Division is seeking proposals from qualified responders to perform planning activities to develop and expand Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) within the state. The intended audience for this e-Memo is counties, tribal communites and community behavioral health providers. The development of Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics is intended to encourage states and local communities to provide a comprehensive way to provide integrated services with a wide array of substance abuse and mental health services in one setting so that individuals can experience a seamless delivery of services. Likewise, developing a cost-based system allows long term sustainability of this integrated package of services.
CCBHCs must coordinate care across the spectrum of health services, including helping clients access physical health care, as well as social services, housing, educational systems, and employment opportunities as necessary to facilitate wellness and recovery of the whole person. This RFP will use a legislative appropriation to provide a limited amount of temporary funding for planning, training, and quality enchancement activities that are required to comply with federal CCBHC criteria for up to three (3) expansion sites. The total funding available is $300,000 with individual grants expected to be approximately $100,000 per grantee. Please view the following link for CCBHC general certification information (PDF).
