This document outlines Trinity County's three-year Integrated Plan for Behavioral Health Services and Outcomes, as mandated by the Behavioral Health Services Act (BHSA). It details the county's behavioral health system, including populations served, technical infrastructure, and provided services. Key components cover Local CARE Act implementation, various grant programs (SAMHSA, MHBG, SUBG, Opioid Settlement Funds), and mandated services (Bronzan-McCorquodale Act, Public Safety Realignment, Medi-Cal SMHS, Drug Medi-Cal). The plan addresses statewide behavioral health goals such as access to care, homelessness, institutionalization, justice involvement, removal of children from home, and untreated behavioral health conditions, identifying disparities and proposing initiatives. It further describes the community planning process, provider monitoring, and specific BHSA-funded programs, including Behavioral Health Services and Supports (BHSS), Full Service Partnership (FSP) programs, Assertive Field-Based Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment, Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT), and Housing Interventions. The plan aims to strengthen the behavioral health continuum through integrated services, workforce development, and strategic partnerships to meet community needs and reduce disparities.

The team discussed the strategic placement of key content, such as featured activities and lodging, to optimize user experience and conversion funnels.

The participants also reviewed Google Analytics 4 (GA4) data to identify high-engagement content, assess website traffic patterns, and determine effective marketing opportunities based on user engagement rates and time spent on specific pages.
