COVID-19 Considerations

15

¨ As a result of COVID-19, the development of the

three-year plan was slightly delayed.

¨ The CPP and needs assessment took place before

COVID-19 and shelter-in-place.

¨ There is some uncertainty of MHSA funding moving

  • forward. Over the next three fiscal years, the

services and program modifications presented in this plan may need to adapt to the evolving funding landscape.

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Service Access & Experience of Care Identified Needs

19

Some consumers still experience long wait times for clinical services Some consumers are reluctant to access services at County clinics due to stigma More peer navigation could help consumers move through the system There is a need for more targeted support for:

  • Older adults
  • TAY
  • Males
  • Latinx community
  • LGBTQ+ community
  • Native American community
  • Families and caregivers
  • Schools and children

There is a need for more recreational and wellness activities, and to raise awareness

  • f existing services

The centralization of services, transportation challenges, and/or being unhoused make it difficult to access services

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Strengths Identified Needs

Overall, mental health providers are dedicated and provide high quality services Staff retention is still an issue and has contributed to a shortage of mental health providers Mental health professionals need more standardized training First responders need more training and support to better respond to mental health crises Staffing capacity has improved, particularly within the crisis team and with the addition of an access team

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Communication and Collaboration

21

Strengths Identified Needs

Improved communication transparency from County leadership has helped stakeholders feel more involved and aware of decision-making about programs and services Interagency communication and service coordination could be improved Interagency coordination for disaster preparedness services could be improved
