Allegan County Community Mental Health Services Board

Allegan County Community Mental Health Services Board, operating as Onpoint, is a county government entity based in Allegan, Michigan that serves as a federal grant recipient delivering community mental health, substance use disorder treatment, and homeless services to vulnerable populations across Allegan County. Onpoint receives direct federal funding as a prime grant recipient (67% of recent awards) and as a sub-recipient of pass-through grants from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and Michigan State Housing Development Authority (33% of recent awards).

Onpoint's federal footprint centers on three concurrent grant programs. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development funds the bulk of Onpoint's work through the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), which accounts for 39 of the 60 recent federal awards in the source. As a designated Housing Assessment and Resource Agency (HARA) for Allegan County's Balance of State Continuum of Care, Onpoint delivers permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information system (HMIS) operations. Recent CoC awards include two May 2026 project grants totaling $365,594 supporting homeless services delivery through April 2027. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has funded two ongoing initiatives: a $412,533 Continuum of Care Program award (CFDA 14.267) running through November 2026 that coordinates housing assistance and supportive services for homeless populations, and a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) grant (award date September 30, 2023, completion September 29, 2027) supporting evidence-based mental health and substance use disorder treatment for uninsured and underinsured adults, children, and families across the lifespan. The Health Resources and Services Administration's Federal Office of Rural Health Policy awarded Onpoint a Rural Communities Opioid Response Program – Medication Assisted Treatment Access grant (September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026) to provide medication-assisted treatment for substance use and opioid use disorders, with goals to serve a minimum of 150 individuals and integrate MAT services with case management, outpatient therapy, intensive outpatient programming, primary care, housing assistance, and assertive community treatment.

Customer concentration sits with HUD (39 awards) accounting for the dominant share of Onpoint's recent award volume, followed by SAMHSA (6 awards) and CMS (4 awards), representing 90% of tracked awards. Sub-recipient work flows through Michigan state agencies, particularly the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (sub-awards for pre-admission screening, infant and early childhood mental health consultation, rapid re-housing, and family shelter pilots) and the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (Coordinated Entry funding in the $25 thousand to $43 thousand annual range). Activity has remained relatively stable, with ten awards in 2023 and 2024 and nine in 2025, though only two awards have been obligated year-to-date in 2026. Five awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure across the CoC portfolio.
