The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) awarded a $600,000 Project Grant under the Community Health Centers program (CFDA 93.224) to the Herald Christian Health Center in El Monte, CA. The grant funds will be used to expand access to mental health and substance use disorder (MH-SUD) services for the Asian and Latinx populations in Los Angeles and San Diego Counties, which face disparities in mental health outcomes and lower rates of accessing care. Specifically, the health center will: 1) Improve access to clinical MH and SUD services; and 2) Provide patients with education, enrollment assistance for social services, and referrals to community resources. This award supports the health center's efforts to deliver comprehensive, culturally competent primary and preventive care to medically underserved populations in the region.
