Financing Toolkit for New York State’s Child & Youth Behavioral Health System
Overview
The New York State Conference of Local Mental Hygiene Directors (CLMHD)
contracted with Innovations Institute at the UConn School of Social Work, on behalf of the New York State Office of Mental Health (OMH), to develop a customized financing toolkit to support New York State and its counties to access innovative financing approaches for diversified funding to continue to provide individualized, high quality, and effective services and supports to children and youth.
