DHCS invites Californians to participate in the public comment period for Module 1 of the Behavioral Health Transformation Policy Manual, open from November 8 through December 2, 2024, to help shape these policies to better serve communities. The policy manual provides guidance for implementing Proposition 1, California’s initiative to improve access to mental health and substance use disorder services. Module 1 includes guidance for community planning and housing interventions to support people in need.
California received federal approval to cover culturally based Traditional Healer and Natural Helper Services for substance use disorder treatment through Medi-Cal. This benefit approval supports American Indian and Alaska Native Medi-Cal members by integrating culturally centered care into the health care system.
