カリフォルニアは、リバーサイドの行動健康ウェルネスビレッジの起工を祝います​​ 

リバーサイド大学医療システムは、リバーサイド郡の精神保健インフラを改善するために8,000万ドルの助成金を受け取った。​​ 

サクラメント —ヘルスケアサービス部門(DHCS)は、6月12日にリバーサイド大学ヘルスシステムに参加して、メンタルヘルスと物質使用障害の治療を必要とする個人にサービスを提供するウェルネスビレッジと呼ばれる新しい行動健康および身体的ヘルスケアキャンパスの起工を祝いました。 DHCSは、リバーサイド大学ヘルスシステムに8,000万ドル以上を授与し、行動医療のギャップに対処するための安全なスペースを構築しました。​​ 

The portions of the campus funded through this effort will enable Riverside University Health System to provide critical resources to more than 20,900 community members annually.​​ 

With the recently approved Proposition 1 bonds, in 2025 and 2026, even more behavioral health treatment facilities will be funded and built.​​ 

「長年にわたり、リバーサイド郡を含む州内の各コミュニティは、重要な行動面および身体面の健康ニーズに対応するためのリソースが不足していました」と、DHCS（保健医療サービス局）コミュニティサービス部門の責任者であるマーリーズ・ペレス氏は述べた。「ウェルネス・ビレッジは、困窮している家族に包括的かつ地域密着型のサービスを提供する、他に類を見ないコミュニティセンターとなるでしょう。」​​ 

ウェルネスビレッジは、一次医療および専門医療、メンタルヘルスケア、薬物乱用障害治療、薬局、危機対応サービスに加え、女性・乳幼児・児童栄養支援プログラム（WIC）や就労準備訓練などの社会福祉サービスも提供する予定です。精神保健および薬物乱用障害治療サービスは、危機介入、入院治療、リハビリテーション、外来診療、および酩酊者保護センターを含む、成人および子供に対する継続的なケアを提供する。​​ 

“The Wellness Village represents a transformative step forward in how we deliver health care, blending hope, healing, and innovation into one cohesive location,” said Riverside University Health System Behavioral Health Director Dr. Matthew Chang. “This project is designed to provide holistic care, addressing behavioral health, physical health, and social support, all in a nurturing and inviting environment. By integrating these essential services, we are creating a comprehensive and accessible system that will significantly enhance the quality of life for our community. Our vision is to foster a place where individuals can find the care they need, all in one location, surrounded by a community that supports their journey to wellness.”​​ 

この取り組みは、 Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiativeの一部であり、子供、若者、移行期の若者、妊娠中または産後の個人とその家族を支援する新しい施設を建設し、既存の施設を拡大するための助成金を提供する歴史的な投資ですメンタルヘルスおよび/または物質使用障害。​​ 

RIVERSIDE UNIVERSITY HEALTH SYSTEM PROJECT: The Riverside University Health System Wellness Village will embody a full-service behavioral health and physical health care campus that serves as a safe, monitored, and therapeutic community and living space while simultaneously delivering high-quality, person-first treatment for behavioral and physical health. Individuals and their families will be able to move through the campus’ continuum of care, from intensive oversight and treatment activities to decreased therapeutic contact, enabling them to prepare for a self-sustained recovery grounded in their community.​​ 

This project is the first of its kind and hosts a multitude of other wraparound and onsite community services. In addition to grant-funded services, the campus will include recovery residences, transitional living, a primary care health clinic, a pet hotel, and a grocery store for residents. With a focus on social drivers of health, the Wellness Village is designed to deliver care and outreach that supports people in their physical, behavioral, and spiritual growth. The Wellness Village was funded through the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) Round 3: Launch Ready and Round 4: Children and Youth.​​ 

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT: Through BHCIP, DHCS awards eligible entities funding to construct, acquire, and expand properties and invest in mobile crisis infrastructure to further expand the range of community-based behavioral health treatment options for people with mental health and substance use disorders. BHCIP addresses historic gaps in the behavioral health care system to meet the growing demand for services and supports throughout the lifespan of people in need.​​ 

DHCS was authorized through 2021 legislation to award $2.2 billion in BHCIP competitive grants. In addition, DHCS will distribute roughly $4 billion in BHCIP grants under Proposition 1 bond funds. Proposition 1 includes the Behavioral Health Services Act and Behavioral Health Bond Act of 2024; more information about Proposition 1 can be found at mentalhealth.ca.gov. Behavioral Health Transformation is DHCS’ work to implement Proposition 1. DHCS holds monthly public listening sessions. Updates and recordings of the sessions are available on the Behavioral Health Transformation webpage.​​ 

ABOUT BHCIP ROUND 3: LAUNCH READY:​​ BHCIP第3ラウンドは、州全体の行動医療インフラの取得と拡張を計画するための準備活動を支援しました。総額5億1850万ドルに上る45の施設は、不動産資産の新規建設、取得、改修を可能にし、行動医療における治療とサービス資源の連続性を拡大するものでした。BHCIPの申請者は、メディカル加入者が利用する施設において、行動健康に関する治療とサービスの連続性を伴うプロジェクトの拡大を実証し、プロジェクトが実施準備が整っていることを保証する有効な計画プロセスを有していることが求められた。​​ 

BHCIPラウンド4について:子供と若者:​​ BHCIP Round 4 focused on Californians ages 25 and younger, including pregnant and postpartum women and their children and youth ages 16-25, along with their families. The 52 awards totaling $480.5 million allowed for new construction and expansion of multiple outpatient and residential facility types, including children’s crisis residential programs, perinatal residential substance use disorder facilities, community wellness/youth prevention centers, and outpatient treatment for substance use disorders.​​
