I am pleased to announce today that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration has awarded $19 million in new supplemental funding to 51 states, territories, and jurisdictions. This investment will strengthen efforts to address homelessness among individuals with serious mental illness by forging stronger connections between the mental health, housing, and criminal justice systems. We are not only investing in lasting change that saves lives, but also furthering our progress laid out under President Trump’s Executive Order on Ending Crime and Disorder on America’s Streets. This is a significant step forward in making our communities healthier and safer for all. The supplemental funds will enable the Mental Health Block Grant recipients to strengthen coordination with courts, expand partnerships with housing authorities, improve cross-system integration, enhance data-sharing, and develop state-level guidance and training to support implementation of Assisted Outpatient Treatment. Additionally, the funds will support training, technical assistance, and workforce development, to better serve people experiencing homelessness.
