“Systems of care are intended to build on the individual strengths of the children, youth, and families being served to address their service needs. Systems of care also reduce service disparities by promoting cultural and linguistic competence and responsiveness. The funding for the program was $4.9 million at its inception in 1993; the cumulative investment through fiscal year (FY) 2009 is approximately $1.4 billion. The CMHI has awarded 144 grants and cooperative agreements to communities.”
