The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), Division of Public Health (DPH) announces the availability of one-time funds made available through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) (P.L. 117-159), which reauthorizes and expands the Pediatric Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) program. The PMHCA program is authorized by Title III, § 330M of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. § 254c-19) and promotes behavioral health integration into pediatric primary care by supporting pediatric mental health care, telehealth access programs, and education.

The aim of these funds is to a). address behavioral health needs among children and adolescents in Wisconsin b). expand the existing reach and capacity of PMHCA-funded programs by providing training and educational opportunities.

Funded projects will advance the following priorities:
• Advance equity and racial justice.
