Community residents are invited to review and comment on the Humboldt County Draft Behavioral Health Services Act (BHSA) 2026-2029 Integrated Plan.

Prop. 63, also known as the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), was passed by California voters in 2004 and placed a 1% tax on personal incomes greater than $1 million to fund the development and expansion of mental health services for children, youth, adults and older adults. In 2024, the passage of Proposition 1 made changes to how counties have to utilize MHSA funds, which includes the addition of a dedicated housing component. Prop. 1 renamed the MHSA to the BHSA. More BHSA information can be found here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://humboldtgov.org/430/Behavioral-Health-Services-Act-BHSA__;!!OzdlGbv3!-SRm4fAGJ9H4G02bIj1_tUNm8wTkXy4Nco35nvYJBknFy1uWM73y0KSTJ67pqjp5BVvm-A5plviiEBWPmHLa-QQ6Wf6P_7GyAJ1-IeWIpmY$

The comment period runs from now through May 28, 2026. A public hearing is scheduled for May 28, and will be facilitated by the Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board in a hybrid format. The meeting runs from 12:15 to 2:15 p.m. 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/BehavioralHealthBoard.
