The draft plan is a comprehensive report that illustrates the impact made by DBH and its contracted partners in addressing the behavioral health needs of San Bernardino County. This report also includes the proposed changes to MHSA programming for the upcoming fiscal years. View and comment on the draft plan by visiting https://wp.sbcounty.gov/dbh/programs/mhsa/ now until March 15, 2023.

“The draft plan demonstrates the expansion of the public behavioral health system of care, promoting wellness, recovery, and resilience for our county,” said DBH Director Dr. Georgina Yoshioka. “Community is at the center of what we do, therefore it is important that you share feedback for DBH to plan on further developing our services.”
The MHSA was passed by California voters in November 2004 and is funded by a one percent tax surcharge on personal income over $1 million per year. DBH, through the MHSA, is supporting the Countywide Vision by providing behavioral health services and ensuring residents have the resources they need to promote wellness, recovery, and resilience in the community. Information on the Countywide Vision and on DBH can be found at www.sbcounty.gov.
