This $594,050 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), authorized under the Community Health Centers program (CFDA 93.224), will enable Central Florida Family Health Center, Inc. (doing business as True Health) to expand behavioral health and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) services for underserved populations in Central Florida.
Specifically, the funding will allow True Health to hire a psychiatric nurse practitioner, licensed clinical social worker/counselor, and medical assistant to increase access to direct behavioral health and MAT services. The project will also expand MAT services to six additional health center locations, provide transportation and financial assistance to patients, and increase group therapy offerings for maternal mental health, youth, and family counseling. These expanded services aim to address rising mental health issues and overdose rates in the region, with a focus on addressing social determinants of health that pose barriers to care for the target population.
