Local Program Support

What's New?

The DMH Community Services Division has recently restructured to reflect our commitment to assist with individual county concerns and issues. The Local Program Support Branch includes three Sections: Two sections are responsible for MHSA Plan Reviews, and one provides County Technical Assistance.

In addition to offering local program support to California counties, each section specializes in a subject area or MHSA component. We hope you will find our new Local Program Support Branch helpful and convenient. The three sections and their areas of expertise are shown below:
