The California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA) is an independent public entity that represents California counties and works with them to strengthen behavioral health services statewide. It supports county systems through shared administrative, fiscal, workforce, technology, training, and quality-improvement initiatives, rather than providing clinical care or referrals directly.
CalMHSA’s work includes electronic health record solutions and interoperability support, managed care tools, provider credentialing and quality assurance, and assistance with cross-county programs. Its workforce initiatives include loan repayment, peer certification, clinical supervision, staffing support, and education. The organization also offers training and technical assistance, including Medi-Cal provider certification resources, webinars, and courses for county staff and community organizations.
Through impact grants, public awareness efforts, research, evaluation, and analytics, CalMHSA helps counties identify needs, develop interventions, and assess results. Its programs address areas such as community outreach, housing, innovation, and support for people with lived experience. CalMHSA reports facilitating more than 100 local impact grants, training over 300,000 county leaders and staff, and certifying more than 10,000 peers across 58 counties.
