The Statewide Network for Youth Peer Support and Advocacy and the Statewide Structure and Network for Family Support and Advocacy will receive $5 million each over the course of five years. 

At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
