The purpose of the project is to improve the Ho-Chunk Nation Behavioral Health Tele-Health Services to provide the highest level of care to individuals identified as requiring comprehensive medical and behavioral health services due to mental health, co-occurring and substance related disorders, whether the symptoms be mild, moderate, or severe. The goals of this project are to assure that we continue to provide services to community members during this COVID-19 pandemic. This funding will allow us to identify and correct existing and future gaps in services, enhance existing high-level integrative services, also to purchase the necessary licenses and equipment so that the behavioral health professional staff can provide tele-health services for the communities served which will improve current outcomes for the population served. We would re-allocate salaries for current staff funded using tribal monies due to the recent Safer at Home that was implemented by Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers, and develop a plan for long-term sustainability and growth.
