Philanthropic award of $72 million will back growth of CCBHC model

A major philanthropic investment will allow government officials and behavioral health providers in three states to identify strategies for maximizing the service capacity of Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs). The $72 million award from Ballmer Group will address service and workforce needs for CCBHCs in Illinois, Kansas and Michigan — states representing different stages of development of the much‐replicated CCBHC model.
