In the coming months, Montana’s mental and behavioral health system will undergo a major overhaul thanks to $300 million in funding from the Behavioral Health System for Future Generations Commission. During a recent meeting, lawmakers, state officials, and private healthcare workers discussed various proposals on how best to allocate this funding to improve behavioral health services in the state.
Among the recommendations put forth were reinvesting in state case management services, expanding crisis response and stabilization services, and increasing funding for school-based behavioral health programs. These initiatives aim to provide better support and resources for individuals struggling with mental health issues and ensure that they receive timely care.
The commission is working closely with state health officials to refine these proposals and create a detailed plan outlining how the $300 million will be spent. By July 1st, they hope to have a clear roadmap in place for improving Montana’s mental and behavioral health services. Ultimately, Governor Greg Gianforte will have the final say on whether to move forward with these recommendations or not. However, it is clear that this funding represents an important opportunity to make a positive impact on people’s lives throughout the state.
