BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
HHSA’s Mental Health Division applied for and was awarded CCMU grant funding from California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) to support and expand behavioral health mobile crisis and non-crisis responses. DHCS has contracted with Advocates for Human Potential, Inc. (AHP) to administer this grant and to ensure the program outcomes of the grant are met. This grant was previously accepted and received by Napa County on June 21, 2022.
Approval of today’s action ensures compliance with the State’s requirement to replace the Statement of Work and Payment Schedule. These updates affect the deliverables and due dates in regard to direct services and are tied to Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA) funding that was required to be fully expended by December 31, 2022.
