Gov. Gavin Newsom and California lawmakers are looking to update the state's behavioral and mental health system and add a $4.68 billion bond measure for treatment beds. A joint committee hearing will convene on Tuesday to discuss the newly amended language in an effort to overhaul mental healthcare.
Newsom and Democratic lawmakers are pushing to have the bill on the March 2024 ballot, creating “thousands of new community behavioral health beds in state-of-the-art residential settings to house Californians with mental illness and substance use disorders, which could serve over 10,000 people every year.”
The bill orders 51% of the early intervention funds to be spent on children and youth prevention programs. “While there could be an increase in MHSA funding for children and youth services within FSPs, there likely would be a reduction in MHSA funding available for other children and youth services,” the LAO report read. “On net, we find that whether the current level of county MHSA spending — particularly at the county level — on children and youth services would be maintained is uncertain.”
