One of the recipients was Black Physicians of Utah, which will use the grant to expand mental health services for Black Utahns. The grant will fund group counseling sessions led by Black therapists, along with the creation of a list of mental health resources.
The grant could also be used to supplement access to therapy for Black Utahns without insurance, the report said.
Another grantee was Community Options, which supports individuals with disabilities to gain access to employment services.
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.
