The Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration awarded the Mississippi Department of Mental Health $19.9 million on October 1, 2025, under the Block Grants for Community Mental Health Services program (CFDA 93.958). The award funds comprehensive community mental health services to adults with serious mental illness and children with serious emotional disturbance across Mississippi through September 30, 2027, with performance in Jackson, Mississippi.

Children's services include purchase of services for youth ages birth to 21 with serious emotional or behavioral disorders; intensive community support services coordinating care during transitions from inpatient treatment; mental health services for youth detained in juvenile detention centers to facilitate reentry; and early childhood interventions serving parents of children birth to five experiencing or at risk of emotional or behavioral symptoms.
