Mental health programs are receiving significant funding. A substantial amount, $127.5 million, has been allocated for these services. Part of this allocation, $54 million, is earmarked for developing a more integrated approach to mental health care.
This investment is intended to lay the groundwork for a more comprehensive system. The funding is part of a broader budget approved by the Central Health board, which includes a tax increase.
Further details about the budget and the mental health programs can be found through the original source.
