DeKalb CSB will provide targeted case management services, reentry services for criminal justice involved individuals, and provision of telehealth and mobile telehealth services for greater community outreach. DeKalb CSB is DeKalb County, Georgia's Safety Net provider, offering a continuum of care for mental health and substance use disorders for youth and adults and the only provider serving the uninsured population.

Goals of the project include expanding telehealth capabilities in community settings, schools, jails and other criminal justice locations through the use of mobile mental health clinic vans and kiosks; providing outpatient services for individuals with SMI, SED, COD in DeKalb County with a targeted focus on minority communities; providing trauma informed screening, assessment, diagnosis, and patient-centered treatment planning and treatment delivery; providing clinical and recovery support services through targeted case management; and developing and providing resources to address the mental health needs of the DeKalb CSB CMHC staff. To meet these goals DeKalb CSB will expand community outreach through mobile telehealth clinic vans and kiosks to provide clinical services for individuals who have access to treatment barriers and significant unmet needs. Partnerships with the criminal justice system will be expanded to assist in community transition planning for re-entry and targeted case management.
