RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE clarification of the Board Action of June 21, 2022, (Item C.187) which adopted the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan Update for Fiscal Year 2022-23 to reflect a continued MHSA funding amount of $63,270,000 instead of the erroneous amount of $63,214,544 as previously requeste by the department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Adoption of the Mental Health Services Act Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan Update, Fiscal Year 2022-23 assures continued MHSA funding in the amount of $63,270,000, which is $54,456 more than previously submitted to the Board.

BACKGROUND:

Proposition 63 was passed by California voters in the November 2004 election. Now known as the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), the legislation provides public mental health funding by imposing an additional one percent tax on individual taxable income in excess of one million dollars. There are a total of five MHSA components which have been enacted out over time by the State with the goal of creating a better program of mental health services and supports in California’s public mental health systems. The five components include: Community Services and Supports; Prevention and Early Intervention; Workforce Education and Training; Capital Facilities and Technology; and Innovation. There are multiple programs operated within each component. This is a State mandated program under Welfare & Institutions Code.

On June 21, 2022, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan Update for Fiscal Year 2022-23 with a funding amount of $63,214,544. Due to an oversight the funding amount specified on the Board Order did not match the amount listed in the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan Update for Fiscal Year 2022-23. The purpose of this Board Order is to correct the funding amount from $63,214,544 to $63,270,000.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Board Order will not match the funding outlined in the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Three Year Program and Expenditure Plan Update for Fiscal Year 2022-23.
