DHCS 發布更新的 BHSA 縣政策手冊​​  

On June 30, DHCS released updates to the Behavioral Health Services Act (BHSA) County Policy Manual, reflecting content from Module 3, which was reviewed during the public comment period held between April 7 and April 25, 2025. The updates provide clear guidance and timelines for counties as they prepare to submit their draft Integrated Plans (due March 31, 2026) and final Integrated Plan (due June 30, 2026). The updated guidance covers the submission and approval processes for the draft and final Integrated Plans, the budget and Integrated Plan templates, and guidance around Phase 1 Performance Measures. DHCS is developing measures associated with the statewide behavioral health goals in phases. Phase 1 Performance Measures use publicly available population-level behavioral health measures, which are defined as measures of community health and well-being associated with statewide behavioral health goals. Each county’s Integrated Plan must align with these statewide behavioral health goals and measures.​​  

These updates will assist counties, behavioral health providers, Tribal partners, and other behavioral health partners in increasing accountability and improving transparency and efficiency in California’s behavioral health system. For specific questions about the policy manual or any technical requests, please email BHTinfo@dhcs.ca.gov.​​ 

新的 CARE 法報告顯示有前途的結果；視頻強調了早期影響​​ 

6 月 27 日，DHCS 發佈了新的社區援助、復原和增強能力 (CARE) 法案報告，詳細介紹了該計劃在為患有嚴重精神疾病的加州人提供治療、住房和希望方面所取得的早期進展。CARE 是一項新的民事法庭程序，專為未經治療或治療不足的精神分裂症患者所設計，這些患者住院、無家可歸和入獄的風險最高。此模式是自願性、以信任為基礎、以人為中心的，透過與專注於穩定、尊嚴和長期復原的團隊合作，為參與者提供替代監護或監禁的方法。​​ 

本報告附《執行更新》和來自加州健康與人類服務局的新視訊。這些影片分享了 CARE 如何透過提供全方位服務來改變現況，並著重於服務對象的尊嚴和個人目標。截至 2025 年 5 月的全州資料顯示，自「關懷法案」啟動以來，全州已有超過 3,300 人透過請願或外展分流方式參與。從 12 月1,2024(當時所有 58 個郡都啟用 CARE) 到 5 月31,2025 ，共提交了 1,063 份申請，比之前 14 個月提交的申請總數還要多。​​
