The Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) of Texas was awarded a $3,791,897 Project Grant by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Mental Health Disaster Assistance and Emergency Mental Health program (CFDA 93.982). The grant, with a performance period from November 1, 2024 to July 31, 2025, will fund the provision of crisis counseling, outreach, case management, and training for mental health workers in Texas to address the immediate and long-term mental health needs of populations impacted by major disasters. As the prime recipient, HHSC will likely distribute sub-grant funding to local governments, non-profits, and community organizations to deliver these crisis counseling and mental health services directly to Texans affected by disasters.
