The California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA) is an organization of
county governments working to improve mental health outcomes for individuals,
families and communities. Prevention and Early Intervention programs implemented
by CalMHSA are funded by counties through the voter-approved Mental Health
Services Act (Prop 63). Proposition 63 provides the funding and framework needed
to expand mental health services to previously underserved populations and all of
California’s diverse communities. The CCI-Integrated Behavioral Health Project was
funded under the CalMHSA Stigma and Discrimination Reduction program to
improve access to health, mental health, and substance use services across
California.
The Greater Bay Area Mental Health & Education Workforce Collaborative (the
Collaborative) represents many different counties, agencies, organizations, and
institutions, all committed to expanding the Greater Bay Area's public mental health
workforce. The Collaborative is a project of the California Institute for Mental Health
(CiMH) in partnership with the Greater Bay Area County Mental Health Directors,
Alameda County Behavioral Health Care Services and the Office of Statewide Health
Planning & Development (OSHPD). Funding is provided through the Mental Health
Services Act (MHSA – Prop 63) and the Zellerbach Family Foundation.
The California Institute for Mental Health is a non-profit public interest corporation
established for the purpose of promoting wellness and positive mental health and
substance use disorder outcomes through improvements in California’s Health
System. CiMH is dedicated to a vision of “a community and mental health services
system which provides recovery and full social integration for persons with
psychiatric disabilities; sustains and supports families and children; and promotes
mental health wellness.”
Created in 1990, CalSWEC is a consortium of the state’s accredited social work
graduate schools, all county departments of social service and local mental health
departments, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), the California
Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers, the County Welfare Directors
Association (CWDA), the California Mental Health Directors Association (CMHDA),
and foundations. It is the nation’s largest coalition of its kind working together to
provide professional education, student support, in-service training, and workforce
evaluation research—all directed toward developing effective, culturally competent
public service delivery to the people of California.
The mission of the Zellerbach Family Foundation is to be a catalyst for constructive
social change by initiating and investing in efforts that strengthen families and
communities.
