Community residents are invited to review and comment on the Humboldt County Draft Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) 2024-2025 Annual Update.
In 2004, California voters approved Proposition 63, or MHSA, which placed a 1 percent tax on personal incomes in excess of $1 million. This revenue is used to develop and support local mental health programs for children, youth, adults and older adults.
The comment period runs from now through May 23, 2024. A public hearing is scheduled for May 23, and will be facilitated by the Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board in a hybrid format. The meeting runs from 12:15 to 2:15pm. For those wanting to attend the meeting in person, the meeting will take place at the Professional Building located at 507 F St. in Eureka. Additional information on the public hearing will be available on the Behavioral Health Board's May agenda, including the Zoom link, at humboldtgov.org/426/Behavioral-Health-Board.
The Draft MHSA 2024-2025 Annual Update is available for review here (PDF).
