San Bernardino>> The San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) invites members of the community to attend an upcoming public hearing regarding behavioral health services, program goals, related outcomes and the Community Program Planning process, as explained in the draft Mental Health Services Act (MHSA).

The public hearing will be held during the regularly scheduled Behavioral Health Commission Meeting on Thursday, May 4, from noon to 2 p.m. at the County of San Bernardino Health Services Auditorium, 850 E. Foothill Blvd. in Rialto.

The updated report illustrates the progress made by DBH and its contracted partners in providing behavioral health services over the last fiscal year. The report was posted for public review and comment from March 24 through April 24, with feedback to be incorporated into the final version of the MHSA Three Year Plan for fiscal years 2017-18 through 2019-20.

DBH, through the MHSA, is supporting the Countywide Vision by providing mental health and substance use disorder services that promote wellness, recovery and resiliency in our community. Information on the Countywide Vision and the Department of Behavioral Health can be found at www.sbcounty.gov.
