The West Virginia Department of Human Services (WVDHS) was awarded a $1,000,000 Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Planning Grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) on December 31, 2024. This federal Project Grant under CFDA 93.696 will enable WVDHS to expand behavioral healthcare coverage statewide, prioritize reaching underserved populations, build state capacity for data collection and reporting, and develop an application for the CCBHC demonstration program. Key objectives include providing technical assistance to existing CCBHCs, increasing services for six priority populations by at least 10%, and establishing the state's capacity to oversee and manage the CCBHC program. The funding will support WVDHS's efforts to transform community behavioral health systems and deliver comprehensive, integrated mental health and substance use disorder treatment services across West Virginia.
