The Maryland Department of Health's Behavioral Health Administration received a $2,590,518 Block Grant award from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the federal Block Grants for Community Mental Health Services program (CFDA 93.958). The funding will support the administration's delivery of comprehensive community-based mental health services, with a focus on providing treatment, prevention, and recovery programs for adults with serious mental illness and children with serious emotional disturbances across Maryland. Services to be delivered include outpatient counseling, substance abuse treatment, crisis intervention, case management, housing assistance, peer support, workforce training, and public education campaigns. The Behavioral Health Administration plans to distribute sub-awards to various local providers, nonprofits, and other entities to implement these federally-funded initiatives and ensure a continuum of behavioral health services is available throughout the state.
