HHS Announces $708 Million in Behavioral Health Funding Opportunities
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced $708 million in new funding opportunities for behavioral health programs, including $96 million for the STREETS (Safety Through Recovery, Engagement, and Evidence-based Treatment and Support) program targeting mental illness, addiction, and homelessness, plus $612 million for additional behavioral health initiatives. The funding opportunities are now posted and available for application. This represents significant new federal investment in community-based behavioral health infrastructure and services that Medicaid managed care organizations often coordinate or deliver.
These federal grants will fund behavioral health services and infrastructure that MCOs typically integrate into their networks, creating opportunities for partnership and potentially shifting service delivery models in states that receive awards.
