The Contra Costa Crisis Hub (“the Hub”) consolidates and expands access to an array of crisis services. The county’s mobile crisis teams would be headquartered at the Hub and a crisis intervention, urgent care center established. The Hub would provide integrated mental health and substance use treatment services to best address needs of county residents. Individuals needing intervention, but not extended crisis stabilization, would be able to access this level of care on an urgent basis whether self-referring or referred by one of the mobile crisis teams after a community intervention. The Hub’s treatment team would have expertise in addressing acute mental health, substance use and co-occurring conditions. This component of the current crisis intervention continuum is missing in Contra Costa and would serve to enhance diversion from the county’s hospital-based Psychiatric Emergency Services, inpatient psychiatric hospitalization, visits to emergency departments and, in some cases, legal detention. CCBHS proposes to renovate a County-owned facility in Concord at a 2021 projected cost of $2,810,742 of which $1,000,000 in allocated funding will support the project by funding necessary work including interior and exterior remodel, roofing, mechanical systems and fire safety.
HHS’ Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System (TAGGS) website provides access to detailed descriptions of grants, loans, aggregated direct payments and other types of financial assistance awarded by the HHS Operating Divisions (OPDIVs) and the Office of the Secretary Staff Divisions (STAFFDIVs).
