The Colorado Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (HCPF) was awarded a $1,000,000 Project Grant under the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Expansion Grants program (CFDA 93.696) administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The one-year planning grant will support HCPF and the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration in exploring how the CCBHC model can complement and strengthen the state's behavioral health care system. Key activities include conducting a policy gap analysis, developing a CCBHC certification process, engaging community stakeholders, and finalizing implementation plans for a potential CCBHC demonstration project. The grant aims to ultimately impact up to 400,000 individuals in Colorado through improved access and integration of behavioral health services over the course of the 4-year demonstration period.
