Behavioral Health American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funding Opportunities
In 2023, the Adams County Board of Commissioners allocated the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to support behavioral health services and support gaps. These funds were earmarked to fund areas defined as behavioral health priorities and informed by the Adams County Behavioral Health Services and Supports Assessment: A Blueprint for Action. Of this funding, $2.5 million has been allocated to bolster community- and school-based behavioral health services and supports within Adams County.
The Adams County Health Department will ensure this funding is utilized to create pathways for lasting change by building upon the unique strengths in Adams County and addressing the behavioral health challenges facing Adams County communities.
