Mental Health Block Grant

The Mental Health Block Grant is a federal program in the United States that provides funding to states for mental health services. These grants support a wide range of services, including treatment, prevention, and recovery programs for individuals with mental health conditions. Each state decides how to use the funds to meet local needs, which may include supporting community mental health centers, crisis intervention, and programs for children and youth. The goal is to improve access to mental health care and enhance the quality of services available to those in need.
