Full Service Partnership
- How is Full Service Partnership (FSP) monitored and funded?
-
Every three years, the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Coordinator and team compiles a comprehensive program report and expenditure plan that includes the department’s vision of potential changes and how it envisions implementing those changes over the next three years. The plan also lists every program that includes any MHSA funding and provides a program data summary of the services provided. In the subsequent years, an annual update to that plan must be completed. The annual update includes the progress toward the proposed changes and any other notable updates to the overall programs. Again, each update also includes a program summary report of all MHSA-funded programs. Seventy-five percent (75%) of the MHSA funding that the Department receives goes toward the Community Services and Supports (CS&S) programs. It is required that fifty-one percent (51%) of the CS&S budget be utilized in Full-Service Partnership programs.
- What is Full Service Partnership (FSP)?
-
A Full Service Partnership is “the collaborative relationship between the County and the client, and when appropriate the client’s family, through which the County plans for and provides the full spectrum of community services so that the client can achieve the identified goal." (California Code of Regulations, Title 9, Section 3200.130). In Butte County, there are currently two internal FSP programs. Support, Engagement, Advocacy, Recovery, Community and Housing (SEARCH) provides services for adults (ages 26 to 59 years) and older adults (ages 60+ years) while the Youth Intensive Program (YIP) provides services to transition age youth (ages 16 to 25 years) and children (ages 0 to 15 years).
Support, Engagement, Advocacy, Recovery, Community & Housing
Age Range: 18 and over
Support, Engagement, Advocacy, Recovery, Community & Housing (SEARCH) is a full service partnership program which provides intensive services to those who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness due to a severe and persistent mental illness. In addition to receiving mental health services, individuals are linked to the Housing Authority of Butte County, Department of Rehabilitation (DOR), Veterans Services, Legal Aid, Social Security Administration, and other needed community services. Utilizing the Recovery Model philosophy, mental health services include psychiatric support, case management, medication management, employment services and referral, educational support, housing support, representative payee assistance, benefits counseling as well as medical and legal services referral. Services are tailored to meet each individual’s recovery needs.

Youth Intensive Programs
Age Range: 0 to 24
Youth Intensive Programs (YIP) are for youth and their families. The services provided in the YIP Programs are integrated across agencies and programs to provide coordinated care to consumers through an easily accessible process. This process enables wrap-around teams to address the unique needs of individual families and youth. The common goal of all Youth Intensive Programs is to provide specialized interventions and treatments. These specialized interventions and treatments are designed to improve mental health and daily functioning for youth consumers and their families, and have been shown to decrease youth hospitalization, disruptive out-of-home placements, and involvement in the juvenile justice system.
