Now
We’re debuting this new state web page with easy- to- use trackers for county and state progress. This lets you see what’s going on in your community and also links to more detailed program dashboards.
Accountability with results
A key to our behavioral health transformation is adding accountability tools. This lets us see real results and better outcomes. And this means accountability from everyone, including:
- state and local entities
- counties and cities
- private and public sectors
Future
In 2026-2027, all new mental health plans and reports from counties and state:
- will be based on community input and data,
- will include all funding, and
- will be reviewed by the state for outcomes.
Progress is happening all around California. We’re transforming our behavioral health system to better support all Californians, especially those experiencing serious mental illness. Here, you can see the progress happening in your communities.

Getting more Californians into treatment and housing
Californians with the most serious mental illnesses and substance disorders need treatment, not tents or jails. Governor Newsom has made it a top priority to care for them. Proposition 1 and other state actions are making services, care models, treatment sites, and the workforce better.
What is full service treatment? It’s a model of care for people with serious mental illness that addresses all patient needs, including housing. These programs feature:
- care settings and services customized to the individual,
- 24/7 crisis availability, and
- partnership between patients and mental health providers.
If you are seeking treatment in a full service partnership, contact either:
- your doctor (if covered though private insurance) or
- your County Behavioral Health Department (if covered through Medi-Cal)
