NorthBay Health Medical Center in Fairfield, Calif., has been awarded $14.9 million to develop a behavioral health and addiction medicine center.
Five things to know:
1. The funding comes through California’s Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program, part of a broader initiative led by Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office, according to an April 2 news release from Fairfield-based NorthBay Health.
2. Solano County also secured $37 million in the program’s second round, which supports projects backed by Proposition 1. NorthBay Health’s project is one of 66 selected statewide, representing approximately $1.18 billion in behavioral health infrastructure investment.
3. The new facility will be built adjacent to NorthBay Health Medical Center and will include a 24/7 behavioral health urgent care center, a community mental health clinic and an outpatient substance use disorder treatment program.
4. The services are projected to serve 19,000 patients annually and will focus on adults aged 18 and older, including vulnerable populations such as individuals experiencing homelessness, justice-involved individuals and young adults transitioning from foster care, the release said.
