Opportunity Title:
Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Grant Program. Round 3
Funder/Agency:
California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS)
Description:
This third round of Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Program funding will provide $265,000,000 to county behavioral health agencies (BHAs) for use in the expanded implementation of bridge housing services for Californians experiencing homelessness who have serious behavioral health conditions (a serious mental illness and/or substance use disorder). Through the Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Program, the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) will provide $1.5 billion in funding to operate bridge housing settings to address the immediate and sustainable housing needs of people experiencing homelessness who have serious behavioral health conditions, including a serious mental illness (SMI) and/or substance use disorder (SUD).
The BHBH Program is designed to complement these capital investments. In contrast to capital funding programs, the BHBH Program primarily provides operational and supportive services funding to expand bridge housing implementation. County behavioral health agencies (BHAs) applying for funding will be expected to clearly demonstrate how they will reach the historically underserved client populations that are most in need of supportive services.
