California Council of Community Behavioral Health Agencies
CBHA represents the voices of community-based organizations at the state Capitol, with state agencies, and the federal government. Together, with our national affiliate, the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, we shape and lead public policy and advocate for needed legislation and funding. CBHA is dedicated to creating a forum for the exchange of information and expertise for our members.
The Behavioral Health Crisis
The Pandemic ushered in a host of changes to our behavioral health system which impact clients across California. CBHA is here for our members and the clients they serve - advocating for the details that matter as policy is shaped.
We will continue to partner with state government and policy leaders to design a system that is equitable for all.
Effective Advocacy In Action
CBHA would like to extend our gratitude to The California Chronic Care Coalition for the collaboration on their recent video production that raises awareness about the needs of our unhoused populations and discusses how those needs are often driven by chronic conditions. We also extend our appreciation to our member, Felton Institute for demonstrating the significance of whole-person care.
