IPINAGDIRIWANG NG California ang GROUNDBREAKING NG PINALAW NA INDIO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FACILITY​​ 

ABC Recovery Center’s residential treatment capacity will more than double​​ 

SACRAMENTO — On July 1, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) and ABC Recovery Center celebrated the groundbreaking of a facility expansion that will serve people who need mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. DHCS awarded ABC Recovery Center more than $27 million through the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) to build two adult SUD residential units, expanding residential treatment capacity by 120 total beds, in addition to an intensive outpatient treatment for SUD projected to serve 400 people annually.​​ 

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

“Napatunayan ng mga organisasyong nakatuon sa pagkakapantay-pantay tulad ng ABC Recovery Center na higit pa sa kaya nilang magbigay ng makabago at nakapagpapabagong pangangalaga sa mga tao sa kanilang mga komunidad na may sakit sa kalusugang pangkaisipan at karamdaman sa paggamit ng droga,” sabi ni Michelle Baass, Direktor ng DHCS. "Nais naming bigyan sila ng kapangyarihan hindi lamang upang ipagpatuloy ang kritikal na gawaing ito, kundi upang palawakin din ito upang maglingkod sa mas maraming taga-California."​​ 

“This funding is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for facilities like ours that serve the lower socioeconomic population. This funding propels our mission into the future,” said Chris W. Yingling, Chief Executive Officer of ABC Recovery Center.​​  

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH EXPANSION PROJECT: The expansion will provide medication-assisted withdrawal management and intensive clinical services in a residential care setting and intensive outpatient services to treat many issues related to SUD. Currently, ABC Recovery Center offers a full continuum of services, including detoxification, primary residential treatment, perinatal residential treatment, individualized day treatment, intensive outpatient programs, and a sober living program.​​ 

KUNG BAKIT MAHALAGA ANG BHCIP: Sa pamamagitan ng BHCIP, mapagkumpitensyang nagkakaloob ang DHCS ng pondo sa mga kwalipikadong entidad upang magtayo, makakuha, at magpalawak ng mga ari-arian at mamuhunan sa imprastraktura para sa mga mobile crisis upang higit pang mapalawak ang hanay ng mga opsyon sa paggamot sa kalusugang pangkaisipan na nakabatay sa komunidad para sa mga taong may sakit sa kalusugang pangkaisipan at paggamit ng droga. Tinutugunan ng BHCIP ang mga makasaysayang kakulangan sa sistema ng pangangalagang pangkalusugang pangkaisipan upang matugunan ang lumalaking pangangailangan para sa mga serbisyo at suporta sa buong buhay ng mga taong nangangailangan. Nakatanggap ang ABC Recovery Services ng pondo mula sa BHCIP Round 3 (Launch Ready).​​ 

Ang DHCS ay pinahintulutan sa pamamagitan ng batas noong 2021 na magkaloob ng $2.2 bilyon sa mga kompetitibong gawad ng BHCIP. Bukod pa rito, ipamamahagi ng DHCS ang humigit-kumulang $4 bilyon na mga gawad ng BHCIP sa ilalim ng mga pondo ng bono ng Proposition 1. Ang Behavioral Health Transformation ay gawain ng DHCS upang ipatupad ang Proposisyon 1. Ang DHCS ay nagsasagawa ng mga regular na sesyon ng pampublikong pakikinig. Ang mga update at recording ng mga sesyon ay makukuha sa webpage ng Behavioral Health Transformation.​​ 

ABOUT BHCIP ROUND 3 (LAUNCH READY): BHCIP Round 3 (Launch Ready) supported preparation activities to plan for the acquisition and expansion of behavioral health infrastructure throughout the state. The 45 facilities totaling $518.5 million allowed for new construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of real estate assets to expand the behavioral health continuum of treatment and service resources. BHCIP applicants were required to demonstrate that their projects would expand behavioral health treatment and services in settings that serve Medi-Cal members and have a valid planning process to ensure projects are ready for implementation.​​
