加州和塞拉维斯塔儿童与家庭服务中心在莫德斯托社区健康和青少年预防中心破土动工
行为健康服务每年扩大到 4,800 名社区成员
萨克拉门托——卫生保健服务部 (DHCS) 和Sierra Vista 儿童与家庭服务中心今天在莫德斯托动工建造一座新设施,以弥补精神健康和物质使用障碍 (SUD) 治疗方面的关键差距。 社区健康和青少年预防中心将提供重要服务,包括青少年恢复性司法实践、心理健康咨询、怀孕和产后服务、家庭和父母支持服务以及其他综合服务。

DHCS awarded Sierra Vista Child & Family Services more than $4.6 million through the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP), which works to ensure comprehensive behavioral health care for California’s most vulnerable residents. With the recently approved Proposition 1 bonds, in 2025 and 2026, even more behavioral health treatment facilities will be funded and built.
“Early intervention in behavioral health is vital for a lifetime of wellness,” said DHCS Director Michelle Baass. “Holistic, family-centered community organizations like Sierra Vista Child & Family Services play a critical role, and we are pleased to support their efforts to serve families in Modesto.”
“The Community Wellness and Youth Prevention Center marks an exciting new chapter for the community in south Modesto,” said Sierra Vista Child & Family Services CEO Andrew Timbie. “Sierra Vista is dedicated to delivering services and collaborating and innovating with local residents and other entities to bring about lasting change. By increasing information, access, and quality services, this center can be a model of transformation and strength to under-resourced communities.”
This effort, part of the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative, is a historic investment that provides grant funding to construct new facilities and expand existing facilities that help children, youth, transition-age youth, and pregnant or postpartum individuals and their families with mental health and/or substance use disorders.
SIERRA VISTA CHILD & FAMILY SERVICES: Sierra Vista Child & Family Services offers a diverse array of services, including Enhanced Care Management, mentoring, short-term residential therapeutic programs for foster youth, and perinatal substance use disorder treatment programs.
The new Community Wellness and Youth Prevention Center will be built using BHCIP funds. Sierra Vista Child & Family Services is on a mission to create lasting change in the lives of children, families, and the entire south Modesto community. Their dedication is centered on the places that matter most – neighborhoods, schools, and the communities they proudly call home. At the core of their vision is the commitment to expand their ability to deliver quality resources and services to all who need them.
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 is addressing historic gaps in the behavioral health care system to meet the growing demand for services and support throughout the lifespan of people in need. Sierra Vista Child & Family Services received BHCIP Round 4: Children and Youth grant funding.
DHCS 已经通过竞争方式发放了 17 亿美元的 BHCIP 拨款。 此外,DHCS 还将根据 1 号提案债券资金分配高达 44 亿美元的 BHCIP 竞争性拨款。就在本月,健康与社会服务部(DHCS)宣布将提供高达 33 亿美元的竞争性补助资金,用于为最需要护理的加州人开发各种行为健康治疗环境。行为健康转型是 DHCS 实施第 1 号提案的工作。DHCS 定期举行公众听证会。会议的最新情况和录音可在行为健康转型网页上查阅。
