新阿尔塔迪纳设施为洛杉矶县带来重要的行为健康护理服务​​ 

项目为跨性别者、性别不合者提供专业支持​​ 

& 萨克拉门托--卫生保健服务部（DHCS）和洛杉矶酗酒中心（L.A. CADA）扩大了洛杉矶县阿尔塔蒂纳项目（Altadena Project）的药物使用障碍（SUD）住院治疗服务，以治疗药物使用障碍和并发的精神健康需求。该机构的主要重点是为 LGBTQIA2S+（女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人和/或性别扩张型人、同性恋者和/或质疑者、双性人、无性人和双灵人）提供服务，重点是为变性人和性别不符者，尤其是低收入者、无家可归者或面临无家可归风险者以及司法系统介入者提供包容性的平权护理。该项目将增加 18 张住院治疗床位，每年为 72 名成年人提供重要支持。​​ 

DHCS awarded L.A. CADA more than $1.8 million through the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP), which is part of California’s ongoing commitment to expand behavioral health services for all Californians. With the passage of Proposition 1, even more behavioral health treatment facilities will be funded and built in 2025 and 2026.​​ 

Grand Opening of L.A. CADA’s New Serenity House​​ 

“Los Angeles Centers for Alcohol & Drug Abuse has a proven track record of delivering vital services to people with SUDs and co-occurring mental health needs,” said DHCS Director Michelle Baass. “The opening of the Altadena Project will empower them to continue providing critical, evidence-based healing practices to an often-overlooked community – LGBTQIA2S+ individuals. We’re proud to support Altadena’s commitment to meeting people where they are with compassion.”​​ 

THE ALTADENA PROJECT: The Altadena Project provides a broad range of supportive and therapeutic services, including individual, group, and family counseling, along with comprehensive case management. Its evidence-based treatments cover essential areas, including mental health support, recovery coaching, LGBTQIA2S+-affirming care, and peer support. The project also ensures services are accessible and respectful of cultural and language needs, and offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to support recovery from opioid use. Together, these services provide a well-rounded approach to long-term recovery and stability.​​ 

"洛杉矶 CADA 首席执行官胡安-纳瓦罗（Juan Navarro）说："我们非常感谢 DHCS 通过 BHCIP 提供的这笔资金。"这项支持使我们能够扩大和加强我们的服务，更好地满足 LGBTQIA2S+ 群体的需求，尤其是变性人群体的需求。这笔资金使我们能够提供基本的行为健康服务，并重申了我们为所有人营造一个安全、包容和支持性环境的承诺。我们非常感谢能有机会提供这些服务，并对我们的社区产生持久的积极影响。​​ 

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 co-occurring mental health treatment needs and SUDs. BHCIP is addressing 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 has awarded $1.7 billion in BHCIP competitive grants. In addition, DHCS will distribute up to $4.4 billion in competitive Bond BHCIP funding, including $3.3 billion for Round 1: Launch Ready grants as part of Behavioral Health Transformation, DHCS’ work to implement Proposition 1. DHCS holds regular public listening sessions on this effort. Updates and recordings of the sessions are available on the Behavioral Health Transformation webpage.​​ 

洛杉矶酗酒者援助中心（L.A. CADA）：50 多年来，洛杉矶酗酒者援助协会（L.A. CADA）为洛杉矶县居民提供了重要的戒毒、戒酒和预防治疗服务，这些居民在获得治疗方面一直面临着障碍。

关于 BHCIP 第三轮：准备就绪： BHCIP 第三轮支持准备活动，以计划在全州购置和扩建行为健康基础设施。这 45 家机构共获得 5.185 亿美元的资助，用于建设、购置和修复不动产资产，以扩大行为健康治疗和服务资源的连续性。BHCIP 申请者必须证明为 Medi-Cal 成员提供的服务得到了扩展，并有一个有效的规划过程，以确保项目做好实施准备。​​
