Agenda Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development
Mental Health Services Act Workforce Education and Training (WET) Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development • In 2008, the former Department of Mental Health (DMH) developed and received approval by the California Mental Health Planning Council for the first WET Five-Year Plan that covered the period from April 2008 to April 2013. • In July 2012, following the elimination of DMH, the MHSA WET programs were transferred to OSHPD. OSHPD is accountable for the development of the next WET Five-Year Plan. • This allowed the opportunity to provide changes to allocations for the State WET Programs funded through the first Five-Year Plan. Per WIC Section 5820 (e), the Five-Year Plan requires final approval from the California Mental Health Planning Council (CMHPC) by April 2014. • To develop a comprehensive plan, OSHPD carried out a robust process that included stakeholder engagement and independent research, evaluation, and analysis on public mental health workforce trends and needs.
Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development WET Five-Year Plan Stakeholder Engagement • Community Forums:OSHPD completed 14 community forums throughout the state including: Napa, Ventura, San Diego, Humboldt, Alameda, Los Angeles, Stanislaus, Shasta, Sacramento, Butte, Orange, San Bernardino, Monterey, and Tulare. Collectively these community forums engaged over 600 stakeholders throughout the state. • Focus Groups: OSHPD conducted 13 focus groups with stakeholder groups during their established stakeholder meetings which included: California Healthcare Workforce Policy Commission; MHSA WET Coordinators; MHSA Partners Forum; California Health Professions Consortium/California Health Workforce Alliance; Working Well Together; Foundation Board of Trustees; WET Regional Partnership Coordinators; Greater Bay Area WET Collaborative; CMHDA Policy Committee; CMHDA all Directors Meeting; Older Adults Population Stakeholders; California Coalition for Mental Health; and California Mental Health Planning Council. • Webinar and Online Survey: Released an online survey on May 28 and conducted a webinar on May 29 to gather feedback from stakeholders who were unable to attend and/or participate in other stakeholder engagement meetings. OSHPD received over 300 survey responses and 26 participants attended the webinar. • Stakeholder Interviews: Conducted telephone interviews with 13 stakeholders.
