Background and Discussion:
The Behavioral Health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have been profound. Harris County residents have
experienced an increase in stress, mental health crises, substance use-related deaths, suicides, and more.
Communities in Schools, School-Based Mental Health Partnership Program, is a program designed to enhance school-based mental health services to serve more students within the County in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Communities in Schools provides school-based mental health and behavioral health services to a population of students who have limited access to mental health and behavioral health services in their communities.
Expected Impact: Additional school based mental health counseling services will be provided to students.
Alternative Options: If the amendment is not approved, services for students will be prematurely terminated.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity

_ Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
