Behavioral Health Services Act Funded Community Driven Behavioral Health Initiative

The California Department of Public Health, in partnership with California Institute for Behavioral Health Solutions (CIBHS) is pleased to announce that the Request for Applications (RFA) is officially NOW LIVE for the California Department of Public Health (CDPH)-funded Community-Driven Behavioral Health Initiative (CDBHI).

As the Third-Party Administrator and Technical Assistance Provider for this project, CIBHS is overseeing $30 million in competitive grant funding to support culturally responsive, community-driven behavioral health prevention across California.

This initiative is designed to support culturally rooted, community-driven and community-informed behavioral health prevention strategies and solutions. Funded projects will focus on promoting wellness before behavioral health conditions develop and reducing the stigma associated with seeking help.

CIBHS bridges the gap between high-level policy and front-line implementation through a full suite of technical and administrative solutions. From clinical training and systems transformation to agile third-party administration (TPA), we provide the structure, expertise, and fiscal rigor needed to build a responsive and sustainable behavioral health system.
