Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Program

County Behavioral Health Agency RFA Announcements

The Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Program has revised the budget template required for the County Behavioral Health Agencies (BHA) Request for Applications (RFA). The new version of the template includes revised formulas that make it easier to total budget categories. The older versions of the template will also be accepted.


The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) has also updated its list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding the BHA RFA. The updated FAQs are available on the County BHA page of the BHBH Program website. Please be sure to check the FAQs regularly for clarification of RFA requirements.
