Thank you to everyone who joined us at the 2026 NAMI CA Southern Region Town Hall, co-hosted by and Nami San Jacinto and Riverside University Health System – Behavioral Health (RUHS-BH) at Temecula Valley Hospital. Community members gathered for an evening of informative presentations on SB 43, the CARE Act, collaborative courts, crisis care, and substance use resources, followed by a Q&A with RUHS–BH experts.

Leaders from both NAMI and RUHS – BH emphasized the importance of accessible behavioral health services and early support for families and individuals. We’re grateful for the engagement and commitment from our residents, advocates, and local partners.

“Riverside County is committed to making behavioral health care and resources more accessible to residents throughout the region,” said Riverside County 3rd District Supervisor Chuck Washington.

Our First Episode Psychosis (FEP) program provides specialty care to individuals aged 12-26 who recently experienced psychosis. The team works alongside the family to achieve school, work, and relationship goals. Research shows that this team-based recovery approach empowers individuals, decreases the need for future hospitalizations, and shows a higher quality of life long-term. Recovery is possible and hope is here! Call 951-358-6005 or email [email protected] to get started today.
