| (b) | Grants shall be provided to counties according to an allocation methodology determined by DHCS, in consultation with the Judicial Council. | ||||||
| (c) | Counties shall spend at least 50 percent of the funds allocated pursuant to this provision to support planning and capacity building activities to expand and accelerate services, including, but not limited to, capital for housing and treatment, including recovery housing; hiring, training, and development of policies and procedures; support for information technology infrastructure costs, including, but not limited to, changes needed to electronic medical record systems; and changes needed for reporting data, and case tracking. No matching funds are required for any portion of a county’s allocation that is expended solely on planning and capacity building activities. | ||||||
| (d) | Any portion of a county’s allocation expended on behavioral health treatment services shall be matched by a 25 percent match from local funding sources. County behavioral health departments must maximize federal reimbursements for eligible services, in collaboration with the courts and other partners. Funding allocated under this provision may not be used to pay for services that are covered by an individual’s commercial insurance coverage. These provisions are not intended to replace or relieve current county funding obligations required to draw down federal matching funds for Medi-Cal covered services. | ||||||
| (e) | Funding spent on services pursuant to subprovision (d) may be used to cover costs associated with Proposition 36 (2024) that are not Medi-Cal reimbursable, including workload and behavioral health evaluations related to court proceedings and treatment not covered by Medi-Cal, or private commercial insurance. | ||||||
| (f) | As a condition of receiving funds pursuant to this provision, county behavioral health departments shall provide data and outcomes, including, but not limited to, information on how funds were expended and the number of people served, in a manner determined by DHCS, in consultation with the Judicial Council. DHCS shall coordinate with the Judicial Council to ensure that the data is collected and reported necessary for the Judicial Council to comply with the reporting requirement in Provision 20 of Item 0250-101-0001. | ||||||
| (g) | Up to 5 percent of this funding may be retained by DHCS for administering this funding. | ||||||
| (h) | The funding allocated in this provision shall be available for expenditure or encumbrance until June 30, 2028. | ||||||
| (i) | In providing the funding allocated in this provision, it is the intent of the Legislature to help offset county responsibilities related to the initial implementation of Proposition 36 (2024). | ||||||
| (j) | For purposes of implementing this section, the State Department of Health Care Services may enter into exclusive or nonexclusive contracts, or amend existing contracts, on a bid or negotiated basis. Notwithstanding any other law, contracts entered into or amended pursuant to this section shall be exempt from Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 14825) of Part 5.5 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, Section 19130 of the Government Code, and Part 2 (commencing with Section 10100) of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code, and shall be exempt from the review or approval of any division of the Department of General Services. | ||||||
| (k) | Notwithstanding Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, the State Department of Health Care Services, without taking any further regulatory action, shall implement, interpret, and make specific this section by means of all-county letters, plan letters, information notices, or similar instructions. | ||||||
| 27. | Of the amount appropriated in Schedule (2), $2,000,000 is available for encumbrance or expenditure for the State Department of Health Care Services to support the urgent needs and emergent issues of children and youth, including the promotion and enhancement of next generation digital support tools for mental health as a component of the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative, as well as the development of single-session interventions and tools to support children, youth and families affected by wildfires. | ||||||

community-based programs, among other alternatives as determined by the department. The report may also identify potential
changes the department has or is considering to existing programs, such as the compassionate release, medical parole, and
elderly parole programs, to the extent any changes are considered, and any limitations to changes considered. The alternatives
shall address the growing number of incarcerated individuals who are advanced in age, disabled, or have significant medical
needs. In evaluating the alternatives, the department shall assess the potential to reduce departmental costs, provide the
