What it does

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, the Department of Health Services awards grants in the total amount of $250,000 in each fiscal biennium to counties or regions composed of multiple counties to establish or enhance crisis programs to serve individuals having crises in rural areas. This bill expands the grant program under current law and directs DHS to also award grants to counties, municipalities, or regions composed of counties or municipalities to establish and enhance law enforcement and behavioral health services emergency response collaboration programs. Under current law, DHS awards these grants in an amount equal to one-half of the amount of money the county or region provides to establish or enhance crisis programs. This bill eliminates that limitation and instead requires grant recipients to match at least 25 percent of the grant amount awarded for the purpose that the grant is received. Also, under the bill, DHS may not award any single grant in an amount greater than $100,000.
