Community Response or Telehealth
 

One way this money could be used is to allow private agencies to provide crisis and wrap around services to individuals in need.  Per regulations, an individual can be seen a certain amount of time and billed as a crisis intervention before requiring a treatment plan.  This funding would help support such agencies that would want to do something of this nature with infrastructure and equipment in order to do so.  

Another idea would be to help with Telehealth providers and provide training and support.
