Central Counties Center For Mhmr Services

Central Counties Center For Mhmr Services, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Temple, Texas, operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal mental health and substance abuse grants, with no prime contracts or grant awards in its federal footprint. The organization receives all seven recent awards through the Health and Human Services Commission of Texas or the University of Texas at Austin as the prime grantee, with combined obligations of $4.1 million across the Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the Administration for Children and Families.

The vendor's recent award activity spans two years (five awards in 2025, two in 2026) and centers on community mental health and crisis support programming. Representative work includes a February 2026 sub-award for the Central Counties Mental Health First Aid Program, a January 2026 sub-award for general Central Counties mental health center operations, three September 2025 sub-awards supporting the Central Counties Local Mental Health Authority Primary Care initiative, a July 2025 sub-award for a Mental Health Crisis Services Center, and a March 2025 sub-award supporting the Advancing the Early Psychosis Intervention Network in Texas (EPINET-TX) through a University of Texas at Austin prime grant. The organization's customer base is concentrated within HHS agencies, with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration accounting for 40% of recent sub-awards and the remaining 60% split between the National Institute of Mental Health and the Administration for Children and Families. All grant activity flows through either the Texas HHS Commission or academic research primes rather than through direct federal engagement.

Central Counties Center For Mhmr Services does not compete for federal contracts, sit on governmentwide acquisition vehicles, or hold prime grant status. As a sub-recipient organization, it functions as a service-delivery arm for state-level grant intermediaries and research institutions, delivering community-based mental health crisis intervention, early psychosis response coordination, and mental health first aid training to Texas populations under federal mental health and substance abuse programs.
