Introduction
Cultural competence, according to Campinha-Bacote (2002), is a process in which the provider
continuously strives to be culturally responsive and work effectively within the cultural context of
a community from a diverse cultural and ethnic background. Reflecting on the work that mental
health leaders do in local, regional, and state departments calls for an examination of the
cultural capabilities that are essential to respond to mental health service inequalities and health
disparities experienced by unserved, underserved, and inappropriately served communities.
Anticipating and recognizing the need to reduce service inequalities and health disparities, the
California Department of Mental Health introduced the cultural competence plans (CCPs) in the
late 1990s, requiring all counties across the state to complete a CCP. This requirement remains
a priority in the efforts to adequately assess and respond to potential disparities in mental health
services throughout the state. Disparities in access to culturally relevant mental health services,
and inconsistencies in culturally competent services offered, were thought to exist in many
regions of California, and the CCPs were intended to enable introspective examination of
potential deficiencies in services and solutions for the future. Therefore, data from the CCPs
were used to examine California’s mental health system’s response to reducing disparities.
This section of the report highlights CCPs in California, from their historical initiation and
background, to the most updated data available, to recommendations for future CCP
requirements and evaluation, with the goal of guiding and informing future steps toward
equitable culturally competent mental health services throughout the state.
Historical Initiation and Background
Prior to the passage of the 2004 Mental Health Services Act (MHSA, Proposition 63),
California’s community mental health systems had a long and well-documented history of
attempts to reduce the disparities in access and quality of care experienced by diverse
populations.1 In the mid-1990s, at the national and state levels, mental health systems were
undergoing a major policy shift toward implementation of managed care programs. In order to
consolidate resources and to create a more cost-effective Medi-Cal delivery system, California
initiated a statewide movement away from “fee for service” providers through consolidation of
Medi-Cal specialty mental health services. Consequently, mental health services were
separated from health services, and a cohesive mental health system emerged. The
consolidation of funding prevented “fee for service” providers from receiving reimbursement for
Medi-Cal patients outside of the new managed care system. In essence, the new managed care
system rendered county mental health systems the sole providers of community mental health
services to California’s Medi-Cal beneficiary populations.
In order to gain approval for this policy shift, the California Department of Mental Health (DMH)
needed to apply for a waiver from the federal Department of Health and Human Services
(DHHS), Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), now known as the Centers for Medicare
1 The content of the historical initiation and background section is derived from personal communication with key
informants previously and currently involved in the development and administration of the CCPs.
1
and Medicaid Services (CMS). In collaboration with the California Mental Health Directors
Association (CMHDA), DMH submitted to HCFA a request for a waiver to grant California
permission to implement the Consolidation of Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services. HCFA
approved the wavier. It was subsequently known as Phase II Consolidation of Medi-Cal
Specialty Mental Health Services (Phase I referred to changes in state hospital funding). As part
of the approved Phase II waiver, the county mental health systems became known as the new
“mental health plans” (MHPs). In effect, the federal waiver granted county mental health plans
the full responsibility for the mental health care of California’s Medi-Cal populations.
The federal waiver required DMH to develop implementation plans for the rollout of Phase II.
However, the DMH’s implementation plan for Phase II failed to include any requirements for the
reporting of strategies to reduce disparities. In a state as highly diverse as California, this
omission generated a strong response from various diverse communities, resulting in creation of
an addendum to the Phase II consolidation plans. This addendum was known as the CCP
requirements.
The CCP Framework
DMH issued the first ever-statewide CCP requirements in October 1997, as an addendum to the
implementation plans of Phase II Consolidation of Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services.
The CCP requirements were added to state statute under Title 9, Rehabilitative and
Developmental Services, Division 1, DMH, Chapter 11, Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health
Services, Article 4, Section 1810.410, culture and linguistic requirements. The regulation states
“County mental health programs shall develop and implement cultural competence plans and
submit these plans to DMH for review and approval.” This statute satisfied the requirements in
the federal waiver.
The CCP requirements were developed in partnership with community stakeholders through the
newly formed Cultural Competence Task Force. This task force included representation from
the California Mental Health Directors Association. The mental health directors were to be held
responsible for writing and implementing their county mental health plans. The DMH required all
mental health plans to include a CCP and submit the plan to DMH for review. Recognizing the
need to oversee the CCP submissions and reviews, the DMH in 1998 established the Office of
Multicultural Services (OMS).
For the first time the DMH established standards and plan requirements for reducing disparities
and moving toward achieving cultural and linguistic competence in service access and
utilization. The Cultural Competence Task Force developed the standards as a means to
synthesize the best research available in the cultural and linguistic competency literature. The
overall goals of the CCP requirements were to:
1) Establish standards and requirements to create consistency in the reporting of data
on cultural competency. This drive toward consistency was designed to enable the
California DMH to monitor improvements in the creation of more culturally and
linguistically competent county mental health systems over time.
2
2) Improve access and the quality of care in mental health services for underserved
racially and ethnically diverse Medi-Cal beneficiaries.
Recognizing the need to assess the mental health system and county-level response to
reducing mental health disparities, DMH stipulated that each county must submit a CCP,
allowing them nine months to gather and analyze their data and submit their final CCPs. The
CCPs originally required each county to present population utilization profiles across four areas,
including access rates stratified by race and ethnicity, age, gender, and language. In analyzing
the data, counties were able to assess organizational and service provider capabilities, identify
county-specific disparities, and develop a county-specific plan. The plan was to include targeted
goals and measurable objectives to reduce specifically identified disparities within their counties.
DMH offered technical assistance and training to help counties find population data sources
(e.g., the California Department of Finance and the U.S. Census Bureau) and county Medi-Cal
utilization data, and to use Client Services Information (CSI) data. Because the CCP
requirements were part of Phase II of the Medi-Cal Consolidation of Specialty Mental Health
Services, they were included as part of the required on-site Medi-Cal review protocols. The
DMH Office of Multicultural Services trained the state review teams on CCP requirements to
help ensure compliance with the CCP requirements as part of the Medi-Cal review protocol.
The CCP, which constitutes a framework for identifying and improving cultural and linguistic
competency, was well supported by national reports and initiatives. For example, in 2001, a
federal report from the Office of the Surgeon General, U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS), titled Mental Health: Culture, Race, and Ethnicity, A Supplement to Mental
Health declared that “racial and ethnic minorities bear a greater burden from unmet mental
health needs and thus suffer a greater loss to their overall health and productivity.” Also in 2001,
the U.S. DHHS Office of Minority Health issued the National Standards for Culturally and
Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health Care, subsequently known as the CLAS standards.
California’s CCP requirements were used as the template for development of these national
standards. In subsequent CCP revisions, the federal CLAS standards were vetted and
incorporated into the revised CCPs, thus tying the federal CLAS standards to the state plans. In
July 2003, U.S. DHHS issued a report by the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental
Health titled Achieving the Promise: Transforming Mental Health Care in America. This report
called for “A new vision for the future—action for mental health in the new millennium.” The
report asserted that states should “tailor treatment to age, gender, race, and culture.” These
reports placed a national spotlight upon national mental health systems, impelling them to take
decisive action to reduce disparities that diverse, underserved populations experience.
Revisions to the CCP Framework and Process
In nearly two decades since DMH issued the first CCP requirements in 1997, three updates and
revisions have occurred. The CCPs were updated in 2002, 2003, and most recently in 2010.
Counties also were required to submit annual CCP updates. In the early submissions, DMH and
community stakeholders reviewed, evaluated, and scored all CCPs. The review of the CCPs
included a scoring protocol with criteria set to evaluate each component of the CCPs, which
assigned a final score to each plan. After each CCP was scored, DMH maintained and stored all
scoring sheets; whether or not these documents remain available is unclear. Use of the scoring
3
protocol to evaluate each of the CCPs demonstrated minimal investment and willingness by
counties to set specific strategies to reduce disparities. In the review of earlier CCPs, prior to
2010, counties identified disparities in access to care for Latinos, Asian-Pacific Islanders, and
Native Americans. Earlier CCP submissions did not identify disparities affecting African
Americans because their data showed high utilization and overrepresentation in inpatient
treatment settings. The California Mental Health Planning Council (CMHPC) can corroborate
these findings. Between 2001 and 2005, the CMHPC, in meetings with its quality review
committee, reviewed and reported county-specific data that reported utilization rates by various
demographic variables.
Despite the opportunity to measure county-level response to reducing mental health disparities,
counties expressed hesitation to complete CCPs. Key informants familiar with the development
and administration of the CCPs recall counties’ hesitation (personal communications, December
15, 2013). They reported that in the meetings held between County Mental Health Directors
Association leadership and the state Department of Mental Health, counties expressed a
concern that the CCPs were in fact an unfunded mandate. As a result, counties were reluctant
to set realistic benchmarks for reducing disparities for fear of lack of reimbursement. Their
position was that the CCP protocols required them to serve “new” populations without new
dollars. Additionally, they were resistant to set realistic goals for reducing disparities for fear of
consequences if they did not reach stated goals. Historically, the DMH position was that these
were not new communities, but rather Medi-Cal beneficiaries whom counties were already
responsible to serve under their Medi-Cal consolidation plans. Too often, the CCPs were seen
as an added reporting responsibility to already overburdened and underfunded MHPs. The
history of the CCP submissions to DMH continued to show poor results in the quality of data
collection and analysis, thus resulting in inadequate and poorly conceived implementation goals
and measurable strategies. The state DMH also failed to hold counties accountable. Poor
reporting of data, inadequate plan submissions, and Medi-Cal site visits that indicated that sites
were out of compliance were accepted with little to no consequences. Under pressure from the
California Mental Health Directors Association, DMH issued no sanctions, and therefore no
significant, meaningful changes were made.
In California, all 58 counties as well as two mental health city sites are required to submit CCPs.
Over a period encompassing multiple CCP submissions, prior to 2010, most counties scored
poorly and did not seriously engage in the intended planning, implementation, and evaluation
process. However, in the 2003 CCP submissions a few counties—notably San Diego, San
Mateo, and Sacramento—began to stand out for their submission of comprehensive plans.
Reviews of their CCPs revealed a supportive internal leadership, strong competent ethnic
services managers, and investment in resources to work with their data, thus resulting in a
willingness to set realistic and measureable objectives in order to make progress in reducing
mental health disparities.
In 2004, the CCPs began to head in a new direction with the passage of the Mental Health
Services Act (MHSA, Proposition 63), which presented yet another major shift in California
mental health delivery systems policy. However, unlike the mid-1990s Phase II Consolidation of
Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services move to a managed care delivery system, the MHSA
brought with it a significant new infusion of financial resources to a historically underfunded
4
mental health system. The MHSA was responding to strong community advocacy for change in
the California mental health system to reduce mental health disparities. The MHSA used much
of the work done in the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health 2003 report
Achieving the Promise: Transforming Mental Health Care in America to guide its development.
MHSA created a historic opportunity to totally redesign the delivery of mental health services in
California. Once again, the DMH was charged with the responsibility to develop the criteria for
implementation of each of the new components of the MHSA law, and related CCP
requirements.
Implementation and Integration of the CCP
The DMH Office of Multicultural Services (OMS), which has been responsible for development
and implementation of the CCPs since their introduction, did not want to perpetuate the previous
missed opportunities to include cultural competence criteria and disparities data collection in the
development of new MHSA programs and services. The rollout of the MHSA presented a new
and unique opportunity to respond to the disparities that the previously submitted CCPs
discerned.
The OMS identified as a primary policy objective imprinting the appropriate cultural competency
criteria, data collection, and organizational and service providers’ standards and strategies in all
of the various levels of program development as they were being designed, thus avoiding the
need for an addendum. The key to culturally competent services is embedding the criteria and
requirements in program design and implementation at every level. Given this new opportunity,
the OMS, and its advisory committee, sought to ensure that the CCP requirements, including
the collection of data by race, ethnicity, gender, age, and language, would be ingrained into
each of the new MHSA programs. The goal was to have accurate and timely data so that
disparities could be identified and targeted with the hope of reducing the disparities.
To achieve the aim of collecting data to identify and target disparities, and ultimately to respond
to the service needs of California’s diverse communities, OMS included specific criteria in the
five MHSA targeted components: (1) Community Services and Supports, (2) Prevention and
Early Intervention, (3) Innovation, (4) Capital Facilities and Technological Needs, and (5)
Workforce Education and Training. However, the OMS decided against extending these criteria
to the Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plan because they were not intended to serve as a
CCP nor would they report what counties were specifically doing to reduce disparities. In their
MHSA Three-Year Program and Expenditure Plans, counties were required to submit a listing of
all programs for which MHSA funding was requested, and to identify the proposed expenditures
for each MHSA-funded program and targeted age group. During the initiation of MHSA, the
California Mental Health Directors Association requested that the 2010 CCP requirements
become more integrated and comprehensive as a planning document so that the CCPs could
reflect the intent of the five MHSA components. The new resources allocated under the MHSA
encouraged implementation of programs to expand services to multicultural communities, and
the California Mental Health Directors Association wanted to make sure that the CCPs gave
consideration to those activities.
5
In 2010, the submission of CCPs enabled counties to present their progress toward reducing
mental health disparities with the help of MHSA resources. Between 2005 and 2010 counties
were given a waiver from submitting annual CCPs, as they developed and submitted their
MHSA plans to the state. Prior to the current report, the 2010 submissions of the CCPs had not
been evaluated, limiting assessment of the mental health system response to mental health
disparities. The current analysis in conjunction with other reports and analyses, begins to
assess the potential influence that MHSA resources have wielded in reducing disparities in
access to mental health treatment services, and the quality of mental health outcomes within the
public mental health system.

Review of Related Literature
Culturally Competent Services and Mental Health Disparities
Despite the impediments that California has encountered in identifying, assessing, and reducing
mental health disparities, continuation of the state's resolve to disseminate and implement
culturally and linguistically competent care is of critical importance. Research indicates that
disadvantaged groups respond well to culturally and linguistically competent services. For
example, Snowden and colleagues (2006, 2011) highlight four areas that they found critically
important in order for mental health ethnic service coordinators to be effective in improving
access to services for diverse groups. The four areas are: (1) hiring bilingual staff, (2) outreach
activities to promote awareness of mental health services, (3) collaboration with community-
based organizations located in the areas where potential consumers reside, and (4) flexibility in
hours and settings for conducting services. Matching providers with consumers of the same
race and ethnicity also has proven to be beneficial for consumers (Cabral & Smith, 2011). That
is, consumers tend to present with a strong preference for a provider of the same race and
ethnicity and to be more responsive to them than to providers of a different race and ethnicity.
Such affinity can lead to consumer retention in treatment.
The general notion behind achieving beneficial cultural competency outcomes is to directly meet
the needs of diverse populations by increasing culturally relevant organizational, structural, and
clinical interventions (Betancourt, Green, Carrillo, & Ananeh-Firempong, 2003). Betancourt and
colleagues elaborate on these three interventions. First, organizational interventions include
establishment of a diverse workforce and leadership reflective of the communities served.
Second, structural interventions refer to agency policies and practices that ensure access to
quality care, such as interpreter services, bilingual staff, and written materials appropriate
languages. Finally, studies have recommended tailoring clinical interventions to the unique
needs of individual consumers and their families. To deliver culturally and linguistically
competent services, providers must be equipped with the necessary training and tools.
Workforce Availability
The integration of a culturally and linguistically competent workforce can translate into a mental
health system of care that is language- and culture-proficient while producing healthier
outcomes for consumers and families of diverse cultures (Parks & Kreuter, 2007; Rogler,
Malgady, Costantino, & Blumenthal, 1987). Model mental health programs have been known to
offer bilingual and bicultural providers who are continually trained to treat diverse individuals,
such as those with limited English proficiency (Aguilar-Gaxiola et al., 2012; Rogler et al., 1987).
Despite the need for a diverse workforce, California is experiencing a significant shortage of
diverse mental health workers. For example, the 2006–2010 American Community Survey
estimates that only 30.7% of social workers in California are Hispanic or Latino, 41.7% are
White, 13.6% are African American, 0.4% are American Indian or Alaska Native, 10.6% are
Asian American, and 0.2% are Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander. Among psychologists
in California, 8.6% are Hispanic or Latino, 80.6% are White, 3.0% are African American, 0.4%
are American Indian or Alaska Native, 5.5% are Asian American, and 1% are Native Hawaiian
7
or other Pacific Islander (California Employment Development Department, 2010). The
disproportional dispersal of providers throughout the state is an additional complication. Thus,
the workforce also suffers from geographical disparities. A recent report by the California
Healthcare Foundation (2013) highlights the availability of licensed mental health professionals
throughout the state, per 100,000 populations, as depicted in Exhibit 1. While some regions,
including the greater Bay Area, are staffed above the state average with mental health
professionals, other regions (e.g., the San Joaquin Valley and the Inland Empire) are quite
understaffed.

Increasing the diversity and geographical availability of the mental health workforce is vital to
achieve equity. McGuire and Miranda (2008) argue that a diverse mental health workforce
throughout the state can serve as an asset to strengthen culturally and linguistically competent
care to match those of consumers. With an emphasis on increasing and diversifying the
workforce to represent the community being served, expanding culturally and linguistically
competent trainings and engaging staff in community-defined practices and service delivery are
essential for the provision of treatment.
In light of these challenges, a more comprehensive review of MHSA programs is essential. In
the current report, we present results of an analysis of the mental health system response to
mental health disparities in California. We analyzed data from the 2010 CCPs for 52 California
counties. In conjunction with statistics from other evaluation components carried out by our
research team, these results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of county data
relevant to mental health service provision, and the cultural competence levels within the mental
health systems across California counties.

Analysis of the Current Mental Health System and
County-Level Response to Reduce Disparities
In this section, we focus on our analysis of the county level response to reducing mental health
disparities, as highlighted in the CCPs. Specifically, we focus on: (1) the objectives of the
evaluation, including the research questions; (2) methods and data quality; and (3) key findings
and recommendations.
Analytical Aims and Research Questions
Through the current analysis, we aimed to provide the MHSOAC, mental health services
providers, consumers, and their family members, as well as advocates and all other relevant
stakeholders, with an assessment of the impact that MHSA has had on mental health disparities
among underserved and inappropriately served groups throughout the state. Specifically, we
aimed to better understand how California counties assessed local mental health disparities,
and how they responded to the need to reduce disparities in access to care. Guided by our
findings, we conclude the current report with recommendations for the continued reduction of
disparities that may help the state confront obstacles in the implementation of the MHSA. Based
on initial discussions with MHSOAC, we developed three research questions to guide our
evaluation.
Research question 1: How does the county’s reported population compare to the 2010 U.S.
Census population? To the California Department of Finance population?
To address research question 1, we explored how counties reported their demographics, as well
as the data source used to gather their information. We compared reported population numbers
and percentages presented in the 2010 CCPs (general population, Medi-Cal population) to the
U.S. Census Bureau’s 2010 Decennial Census and to the California Department of Finance
(DOF) data. Variables of focus included: race, ethnicity, age, gender, and language. The U.S.
Decennial Census and DOF data were compared to the county-reported demographics within
CCPs to determine how well they measured up in terms of counts and percentages documented
for each variable and within each demographic stratum (e.g., children, transitional-age youth,
adults, older adults).
Research question 2: What groups did each county target for reducing disparities? How well
do these findings align with the trends in access disparities identified in deliverable 1a of this
report?
To answer this research question, we explored the populations targeted for mental health
service disparity reduction by California counties. We assessed disparity targets for each county
by: (1) documenting the number and type of targets, and (2) determining whether targets were
realistic, when compared to the county’s demographic data, and to potential disparities
highlighted in their respective CCPs. We assessed two types of county targets: Community
Services and Supports (CSS) targets, and Workforce Education and Training (WET) targets.
Research question 3: How does the county’s workforce compare to the general population? To
the Medi-Cal population? To the MHSA/CSS population?
9
To attend to this final research question, we explored each county’s reported workforce data,
where available, and compared the composition of these data to the composition of data for the
general population, the Medi-Cal population, and the MHSA/CSS population with regard to race
and ethnicity, and specific professional mental health categories (e.g., licensed, unlicensed,
direct service providers, indirect service providers). The race and ethnicity workforce data
yielded a preliminary assessment of the concordance between workforce data (i.e., the
composition of health-care providers) and consumer data (i.e., the composition of clients likely
to access services).
Overall, our rationale for investigating these three research questions was to assess how well
each county assessed local demographic and mental health service needs data, and identified
and responded to potential mental health disparities. In the following sections, we highlight our
methods, results, and recommendations based on our review of the CCPs made available by
the California Department of Health Care Services. The counties without data, overall or for
specific subsections of the report, either did not submit a CCP, or the data for specific
subsections were not available. Data are presented in aggregate for all counties (Tables 1–6),
allowing for county-by-county comparisons, and in individual tables for each of the counties
assessed (Tables 7a-7bg). We focus on the data requested by CCP guidelines, data extraction
methods, data quality, results, and recommendations tied to the CCPs.
Methods
Data Requested by CCP Requirements
Specific CCP Requirements were developed by State Officials. The following section presents
some of the specific instructions given to counties as they prepared their CCPs. For entry of
general population data, CCP Requirements were as follows:
“Provide a description of the county’s general population by race, ethnicity, age,
gender, and other relevant small-county cultural populations. The summary may
be [presented as] a narrative or as a display of data (other social or cultural
groups may be addressed as data is available and collected locally). If
appropriate, the county may use MHSA Annual Update Plan data here to
respond to this requirement.”
In the 2010 CCP Requirements, counties also were instructed to:
“Summarize the following two categories by race, ethnicity, language, age,
gender, and other relevant small-county cultural populations: The county’s Medi-
Cal population (county may utilize data provided by DMH); the county’s client
utilization data.”
To capture MHSA/CSS population and Charles Holzer data, counties were instructed to:
“Summarize the 200% of poverty (minus Medi-Cal population) and client
utilization data by race, ethnicity, language, age, gender, and other relevant
small-county cultural populations.”
10
Counties also were alerted that information for this section of the CCP was available at a web
link they could access.
In order to assess recruitment, hiring, and retention of a multicultural workforce whose members
are part of, or experienced with, the identified unserved and underserved populations, the
county was asked to include the following in the CCPR Modification (2010):
“A. Extract and attach a copy of the MHSA workforce assessment submitted to
DMH for the Workforce Education and Training (WET) component.
B. Compare the WET Plan assessment data with the general population, Medi-
Cal population, and 200% of poverty data.”
To assess the 2010–2011 CCPs, we reviewed the data of 57 counties, the type and the quality
of the data, the county-level sources from which the data were drawn, and the results
highlighted. Specifically, we obtained electronic copies of the 2010 CCPs for each of the
California Counties reviewed. We printed out hard copies of each CCP to facilitate review and
data extraction. Data for each CCP were entered into a Microsoft (MS) Excel spreadsheet and
database. Each row within the MS Excel spreadsheet represented one CCP, from one county or
county collaborative (e.g., Sutter-Yuba). Columns included data for each variable of interest for
the general, Medi-Cal, and CSS populations, as well as workforce data. Creation of additional
columns in our database enabled insertion of US Census and DOF population data, as well as
notes that highlighted data quality details.
Data Sources and Analysis
The following section highlights the data sources and analysis of data from the CCPs. We
analyzed data for 57 counties that submitted a 2010 CCP. We were not able to access the
Sierra County CCP because it was not submitted to DMH by the 2010 deadline. The Berkeley
and Pasadena City CCPs also were not available to the Department of Health Care Services).
CCPs reviewed ranged in length from 50 to 400 pages, and many CCPs included addendums
and appendices that further extended their length. We reviewed Criterion 2, 3, and 6 of the
CCPs.
Below, we first deliver an assessment of data types, sources, impediments, quality, and
consistency across counties.
Next, we furnish a snapshot of the data that were presented in and extracted from CCPs.
Tables that present the data from all counties side-by-side complement the text that describes
these data. Tables 1–6 allow comparison of completeness of data across CCPs in all counties,
and facilitate comparison of reported demographics across counties.
Finally, we highlight county-specific data, presenting a two-page tabular summary for each
CCP. Tables 7a–7bg constitute a snapshot of CCP data from each county, highlighting the
general population, Medi-Cal population, MHSA/CSS population, US Census and DOF data,
workforce data, and CSS and WET targets. We also present a breakdown of workforce data,
comparing workforce full-time equivalents (FTEs), and percentages of FTEs to the proportion of
the general, Medi-Cal, CSS, and DOF populations in each of the different race and ethnicity
categories. Inclusion of all of these statistics is intended to present a picture of the data made
11
available for each county through their individual CCPs, and the gaps that exist in data
collection, data extraction, and data reporting. Review of county CCP data also begins to
highlight where potential disparities in mental health service provision may be present, and what
mental health service priorities and targets were selected for current and future activities.
To assess data quality we determined: the completeness of the data (e.g., number of items
included, missing data); data types (e.g., counts, percentages, both, mixed data types); and
data sources (e.g., American Community Survey [ACS], U.S. Census Bureau, DOF, California
DMH).
Data Quality and Completeness
Data quality varied considerably across CCPs. Numerous counties compiled relatively
comprehensive data. Such counties submitted data that were formatted and labeled clearly,
embedded in appropriate sections of the CCPs, and well-structured with complementary tables
and text entries. Data from counties with good reporting approaches relied upon reputable data
sources, including the 2010 U.S. Decennial Census, the 2006–2008 American Community
Survey (a U.S. Census Bureau Survey with a representative sample of U.S. citizens), and
Holzer data sources. Further, many counties submitted data for mental health program targets
that were focused and realistic, delineating specific subpopulations that needed additional
mental health resources. Finally, counties that succeeded in presenting CCP data in an
adequate manner included data of sound quality, presented in tabular formats, and included
both counts and percentages for all variables. We emphasize that the data in this report is
based on CCPs made available by the California Department of Health Care Services for
analysis. The county and two cities without data either did not submit a CCP, or data were not
available.
The data that many other counties submitted in their respective CCPs, however, contained gaps
(i.e., missing data), which rendered data more difficult to decipher, and complicated and
compromised data extraction and analysis. At times, data within these CCPs were difficult to
locate because they were not clearly embedded in the sections highlighted in CCP guidelines,
or the data were buried in appendices or addendums to the CCP, which were challenging to
navigate. Data were also unstructured in several CCPs, without tables, and in a format that was
difficult to follow in text. Counties with gaps in CCP data also tended to leave out information on
data sources or relied upon older data sources, such as the 2000 U.S. Census—which was
significantly dated by 2010—and data other than Holzer data, complicating attempts to obtain
strong indicators for local populations in need of mental health services. Data from counties with
less structured CCPs also were presented, at times, using less favorable approaches, such as
pie charts, rather than data tables, without corresponding numbers or proportions to facilitate
extraction of counts and percentages for specific variables.
Data Types
Within CCPs, data were usually provided in one of four types (see Exhibit 2). These data types
included: counts, percentages, both counts and percentages, or a mix of data types across
different datasets and variables. In ideal situations, CCPs presented both counts and
12
percentages for all variables. However, when only counts were supplied, percentages could be
calculated (and vice-versa) during data extraction and data entry processes. Exhibit 2 highlights
the breakdown of data types that were detected during the data extraction and data entry
processes.

Medi-Cal
Only Count 3 16 3
Only Percent 15 6 2
Always Both 23 19 23
Mixed 15 9 14
Data Sources
Data sources varied considerably by county across California. For general population data,
sources included the U.S. Census Bureau, the California DOF, the American Community
Survey (ACS), DMH, and the California Health Information Survey (CHIS). These data sources
also varied by year (e.g., U.S. Census) and time range of focus (e.g., ACS 2006–2008, ACS
2006–2010). Exhibit 3 highlights examples of the variety of data sources reported for general
and Medi-Cal demographic data.
Challenges With Data Extraction
Numerous hurdles made data extraction, data entry, data analysis, and interpretation of results
tied to CCPs difficult. The reports were often exceedingly long, ranging from 50 to 400 pages,
and numerous addendums and appendices often added to this length. Despite requests to
format the reports in a similar template, data were often presented in differing formats across
counties, such that counts, percentages, and rates often relied on different metrics, leading to
inconsistencies in assessments of different variables. For example, some counties divided age-
based data into three categories: children (0–17 years), adults (18–64 years), and older adults
(65 years and over). Other counties divided age-based data into four categories: children (0–14
years, transitional-age youth (15–24 years), adults (25–64 years), and older adults (65 years
and over). Such differences in variable definitions impeded comparison of strata-specific age
categories across counties, and across different data sources.
Data sources often varied across CCPs, by year and by the local, state, or federal agency from
which the data were acquired. Thus, “apples to apples” comparison of general population data
and Medi-Cal data on a county-by-county basis was difficult. Finally, the completeness of the
data included in CCPs from across California counties and LHJs varied considerably. Some
CCPs, for example, included comprehensive data for the general population but included less
comprehensive Medi-Cal data. Other CCPs included strong data for race, ethnicity, and age
13
variables, but lacked comprehensive data for languages spoken. Finally, some CCPs included
strong general and Medi-Cal population data but had limited targeting and workforce data.

CSS Demographic Data Definitions and Sources
CSS data are intended to highlight populations that are most in need of mental health services.
CSS data, often referred to as Holzer data within CCPs, represent people living at 200% of the
federal poverty level (FPL), who are presumed to have some of the highest mental health
service needs. CSS data can be useful in highlighting potential disparities within counties, when
compared to the general population data presented in CCPs. Data sources for CSS were very
diverse across CCPs in California. Exhibit 4 highlights examples of CSS definitions and data
sources from various CCPs.

Key Findings and Recommendations
The purpose of our evaluation was to analyze the mental health system response to disparities
based on assessment of CCP data. In this section, we present the key findings connected to our
three research questions.
Key Findings to Research Question 1:
How does the county’s reported population compare to the
2010 U.S. Census population? To the California Department of Finance
population?
Overall, counties present population data that are comparable to the 2010 Decennial Census
and DOF population data. While data sources varied considerably across counties, and data
were presented in a variety of ways across CCPs, the overall county-specific counts and
proportions for specific variables and demographic groups were similar when comparing general
population data and census and DOF data. Tables 1–6 display side-by-side comparisons of
data by demographic categories. Tables 7a–7bg present county-specific CCP data, which
permits comparison of county-level demographic data across different local-level data sources.
The blue ribbon at the end of each table segment summarizes the county-specific reported
population in comparison to the U.S. Census and DOF populations.
For the year 2010, the Decennial Census and DOF data were identical. DOF estimates are
based upon calculations derived from U.S. census data. During intercensal years (2011–2019),
15
DOF estimates will vary from decennial census data as they will take into consideration
population growth and factors such as immigration and emigration across California counties.
From a research perspective, our team recommends use of DOF data for county-level
population estimates. State agencies are generally required to use DOF data for state and
county-level population estimates as DOF estimates and projections are derived from US
Census data, but take advantage of California demographic trends in calculating local
population estimates during intercensal years. According to the DOF website on population
estimates and projections, “Three demographic variables describe the reasons for population
change. Change occurs because of fertility (births), mortality (deaths), or migration (the
movement of people). Immigration, sometimes called international immigration, describes
movements between countries while internal or domestic migration describes movements within
the same country or state.” DOF estimates take these demographic variables and population
shifts into consideration, arriving at more reliable population estimates for California counties. In
fact, these “…data are used in determining the annual appropriations limit for all California
jurisdictions, to distribute State subventions to cities and counties, to comply with various State
codes, and for research and planning purposes by federal, state and local agencies, the
academic community and the private sector.” (Source:
http://www.dof.ca.gov/research/demographic/reports/view.php; accessed 4/28/14)
Recommendations in response to research question 1
The key to more accurate and current population data from counties lies in using a consistent
data collection and analysis plan and procedure for counties to track and monitor their CCP
data. Based on our findings, we recommend the following actions be discussed, prioritized, and
implemented by the following state agencies, including the Health and Human Services Agency,
the California Department of Health care Services (DHCS), the Department of Public Health
(DPH) including the Office of Health Equity, the Office of Statewide Health Planning and
Development (OSHPD), and the Mental Health Services Act Oversight and Accountability
Commission (MHSOAC); and county departments of mental health to effectively reduce
disparities in unserved, underserved, and inappropriately served communities and improve
mental health outcomes in MHSA-related and non-related programs:
1.1 Establish a consistent data compilation plan that counties can adopt and implement in a
way that allows them to obtain and retrieve data with ease, and monitor progress over
time. The plan should include templates for tables, figures, and text that counties can use
to consistently insert their most recent data within a prescribed page limit. A consistent
data collection procedure: (1) increases data accuracy, (2) enables adequate
modifications to CCPs, and (3) focuses on persons from underrepresented groups (e.g.,
by race, age, sexual orientation and gender identity, and geographic regions) in receiving
culturally responsive services.
1.2 Encourage counties to focus on reliable and consistent data sources. As noted above, we
recommend use of demographic and population data from the California DOF. Consistent
use of DOF population data will increase: (1) the reliability and validity of data and
evaluation strategies relevant to populations being served, and (2) the effectiveness of
16
county program design and implementation that bridges gaps in service to
underrepresented groups in high priority areas, accounting for each county’s unique blend
of cultural demographics.
1.3 Formulate a routine procedure for counties to collect and monitor local county data, using
websites and document downloads that are consistent across counties throughout
California. This will facilitate consistent collection, management, and analysis of county-
level data, for multiple years, allowing for high-quality comparisons to previous years and
other counties.
1.4 Conduct on-site reviews of county-specific data collection, management, and analysis that
can guide programs supported by MHSA funds. Ensure that measures are quantifiable,
precise, and consistent over time. This action step can be accomplished by using a
reliable data collection tool with specific measures.
Key Findings to Research Question 2:
What groups did each county target for reducing disparities?
How well do these findings align with disparities in mental health service access
over time, as identified in deliverable 1a of this report?
CSS County Targets to Reduce Disparities
Tables 7a–7bg present CSS and workforce education and training (WET) targets for each
county (please see page 2 of each county-specific data table for targeting results). In this
section, we focus on CSS targets (see below for WET targets). Overall, counties often targeted
a large number of population groups and subpopulations. Of the 51 counties that presented
mental health service targets, 22 reported less than five targets, 19 reported between six and
nine, and 9 reported more than 10 targets (see Exhibit 5).
Also, 18 counties reported targets that focused on a large portion of the general population
(e.g., “children,” “adults,” “Latinos”), rather than pinpointing specific high-risk groups. This brings
into question whether targeting was effective in numerous counties, since ‘targeted’ resources
would be required to respond to mental health service needs in a broad portion of a county
population, if not the entire county population.
Frequently reported CSS targets were:
1. Race and ethnic groups, including:
Latinos
Asians and Pacific Islanders
Native Americans
African Americans
2. Age groups, including:
Children (0–5, 0–17)
Transitional-age Youth (18–25 years)
17
3. Risk groups, including:
Children with serious emotional disturbances
Individuals exposed to trauma
LGBTQ people vulnerable to discrimination

13. Note. Counties not in table is because data were not available
A goal of the MHSA is to decrease disparities in access to mental health services across
California counties. Analysis of CCP data is intended to yield insight into potential deficiencies in
mental health agencies that are responsible for performing culturally competent services for
unserved, underserved, and inappropriately served groups. Accordingly, the targeted groups
mentioned above are consistent with the MHSA’s CSS components developed to improve
access and quality of care, and to increase beneficial outcomes for these underrepresented
18
populations. Still, some of the targeted populations that highlighted specific demographic groups
remained quite broad which could limit opportunities for focused interventions with the highest-
risk populations.
Counties that appeared to have sound methods for targeting priority groups were able to report
three to five targets as shown in Exhibit 5 (e.g., Colusa, Contra Costa, El Dorado, Kern,
Mendocino, San Bernardino, Solano). Our analysis suggests that these counties, after
examining their general population data and populations in need of services, only focused on
groups with specific characteristics that placed individuals within high priority groups that are not
based on demographic data alone. That is, these targets consisted of specific high-risk groups
(e.g., “trauma-exposed individuals,” “children and youth in stressed families,” “adults with
serious mental illness who are imminently at risk of institutionalization or homelessness”). These
counties also appeared to be more effective in matching their CSS target populations to
programmatic developments (see discussion of WET targets below). One potential explanation
for this finding is that effective, culturally competent programs are those that have responded to
feedback from high-risk target groups. Community stakeholder feedback, when recognized and
used to shape county-level plans to align funding resources with specific community needs, is
essential to reduce disparities.
Alignment of CSS targets with trends in access disparities identified in Deliverable 1a
In reviewing the alignment of CSS targets with disparities highlighted in the statewide Client
Services Information (CSI) data from Deliverable 1a, there was a general trend toward
increasing access to mental health services in California among new and all clients following the
implementation of the MHSA until 2008. This may reflect improvements in the outreach to
clients and system wide changes to improve access to all clients following the MHSA. However,
many population subgroups saw declining access for 2009 and 2010 with an upturn in 2011. We
also noted that the trends in the CSI data varied by subgroup, region and county. The greatest
disparities in access to mental health services were seen in older adults (age 60 and beyond).
In the statewide data for both new clients and all clients, we noted increasing numbers and rates
of access to mental health services among children, youth, and families (CYF) and transitional
age youth (TAY) during the initial years following the implementation of MHSA. These trends
indicate that counties were, in fact, showing signs of success in reaching higher numbers and
proportions of children and youth, groups that many counties highlighted as “in need” in their
CSS targets (Exhibits 5a, 5b).

Exhibit 5a. California mental health access trends by age group for new clients obtaining
services
Graph (a) shows the number of new clients by age group and year of service while graph (b)
shows the number of new clients as a proportion of the state’s population for age subgroups.
According to graph (a), the number of children, ages 0 to 15, that comprise the Children, Youth
and Families (CYF) group, experienced a slow but steady increase in numbers accessing
mental health services over the study period with the exception of a small drop in 2009.
Transitional age youth (TAY), defined as the population age 16 to 25, also experienced
increased numbers accessing services from the inception of the MHSA to 2008, but then there
was a slow but continuing decrease in numbers through 2011. The adult population, ages 26-
59, comprise the dominant users (by overall numbers of new clients) of mental health services
statewide and experienced increased access through 2008, but also saw a decline during 2009
and 2010. Then, a sharp increase in the numbers accessing services was seen in 2011. Older
adults, those ages 60 plus, have the fewest numbers of new clients accessing mental health
services in California and no discernable trend over the study period is seen. When reviewing
the proportions accessing services by age group in graph (b), the CYF group showed increasing
access over the study period with a steep rise from 2009 to 2011. In fact, for 2011, the CYF
group had the highest proportional levels of access among all age groups to the mental health
system. The TAY group had increased access from 2005 to 2008, but then declined through
2011. According to graph (b), although adults and older adults had an increase in access to
mental health services from 2005 to 2008, both groups experienced a relative disparity in
access to service compared to CYF and TAY groups.

services.
Graph (a) shows the number of all clients by age group and year of service while graph (b)
shows the number of all clients as a proportion of the state’s population for age subgroups. Data
were incomplete for 2012. According to graph (a), the number of children, ages 0 to 15, that
comprise the CYF age group, experienced a slow but steady increase in numbers accessing
mental health services over the study period with the exception of a very small drop in 2011.
TAY also experienced increased numbers accessing services from the inception of the MHSA to
2008, but then there was a slow but continuing decrease in numbers through 2010. The adult
population comprises the dominant users (by overall numbers of clients) of mental health
services statewide and experienced increased access through 2008, but also saw a decline
during 2009 and 2010. Older adults, those ages 60 plus, have the fewest numbers of clients
accessing mental health services in California and no apparent trend over the study period is
seen. When reviewing the proportions accessing services by age group in graph (b), the CYF
group showed increasing access over the study period. For 2011, the CYF group had the
highest proportional levels of access, among all age groups, to the mental health system. The
TAY group had increased access from 2005 to 2009, but then declined through 2011. In graph
(b), as in the data for new clients, although adults and older adults had an increase in access to
mental health services from 2005 to 2008, both groups experienced a relative disparity in
access to service compared to CYF and TAY groups.
To portray the level of variability in CSS targeting on a county-by-county level, we present a
selection of counties to highlight alignment across several targeting approaches in several
geographic regions of California, allowing for comparison of CSI disparities to CSS targets
within these counties. We highlight two counties that included less than five CSS targets in their
CCP, two counties that included six to nine targets, and two counties that included greater than
ten targets. For each county noted below, we did not include race and ethnicity due to data
quality issues. Therefore, our analyses focus on gender and age targets combined with access
trends from CSI data.
Featured Counties with Less than Five CSS Targets
Contra Costa County focused on four high-risk CSS populations with a specific emphasis on
age groups within each target population. Overall, our CSI findings indicate that only the
21
transition-age youth (TAY) group made moderate increases in access to mental health services.
However, between 2010 and 2012, access to care for this age group declined. The general
trend for other age groups and both genders indicated a mild increase in access between 2005
and 2011. As noted in the analysis of Contra Costa’s CCP, focusing on specific age groups of a
given population can be beneficial in strengthening the connection between that target group
(e.g., children, youth, or older adults) and their increase in access to care.
El Dorado County aimed to address the disparities of five CSS targets. All five groups were had
age as the common variable. This county’s CSI data showed a positive trend in access to care
for adults, and both males and females from 2005 to 2008. However a decrease in access was
evident after 2008. While older adults had year-to-year variations in access, the overall trend
was low access with no net increase or decrease over the study period. The greatest levels of
mental health care was seen for children, youth, and family (CYF) and TAY groups with strong
increases in access from 2005 to 2007. In examining the CSS targets for El Dorado County, we
note that the first three target populations were very focused on specific subpopulations that
would appear to be at high risk (e.g., youth at high risk, court-involved youth, adults with serious
mental illness). The fourth and fifth targets are more general in nature (e.g., TAY adults and
older adults). Overall, the TAY group appears to be the group with the highest disparities based
on the CSI data. It is worth noting that there is convincing evidence that focusing on specific
groups can lead to stronger outcomes.
Featured Counties with Six to Nine CSS Targets
Fresno County focused on nine CSS targets. In general, these nine groups in Fresno County
experienced increased access to mental health services in the first year (2005-2006) after
implementation of the MHSA (e.g., CYF, males, females, adults and older adults). However,
these groups experienced a significant decrease in access for the balance of the study period.
Moreover, CSS targets for Fresno County are relatively broadly focused on groups of all ages,
which can be challenging to address in the short term. Veterans and members of the LGBTQ
community are also listed as CSS targets which are even more focused. The decrease in
access provides convincing evidence that disparities based on CSI data will persist for high
specific CSS targets when they are no longer a priority. That is, the county focuses on too many
targets at once.
Santa Cruz County focused on six CSS targets. The common thread of these groups was high
risk of a mental disorder. According to our CSI data, mental health access increased for all sex
and age groups between 2005 and 2006 and for most groups increased again in 2007 (except
TAY and older adults groups). From 2007 to 2010, decreases in access were seen for TAY,
adult, male and female groups. All groups recovered in 2011 to levels above baseline, except
for the TAY group, which although access increased in 2011, it did not return to baseline (2005)
levels. The older adult group had the lowest overall access, but had the most consistent
improvement in access over the study period. In reviewing the CSS targets for Santa Cruz, we
note that the target populations listed are somewhat focused (e.g., trauma-exposed and at-risk),
others are quite broad. While few of the highest-ranking CSS targets line up directly with
disparities noted in the CSI disparities list, the underserved CSS targets, in general, align with
the highest disparity (e.g., older adults) in access to mental health services.
22
Featured Counties with Ten or More CSS Targets
Orange County concentrated on 13 CSS targets. Based on our CSI data, the groups that
experienced increased access to mental health care between 2005 and 2010 including were
females, males, adults, CYF, and TAY). All of these groups, however, had decreasing access
after 2010. The TAY group had, by far, the highest levels of access overall while older adults
had the lowest levels of access with no net change in access over the study period. While they
are numerous, some of the CSS targets for Orange County are quite specific, and appear to be
focused on subpopulations that are at high-risk, and that rank high on the list of groups with
disparities in access to mental health services in the CSI data. Again, in general, focusing on
too many CSS targets can be more challenging when addressing the disparities of the high-risk
and high-priority groups.
San Diego County focused on 18 CSS targets and the largest of all the counties in this report.
According to our CSI data, the overall trend in access to mental health services for this county’s
targets was positive between 2005 and 2011 with the exception of a mild dip of the trend
between 2008 and 2010. The highest levels of access were seen for the children, youth, and
families and the lowest levels occurred in the older adult group. Many of the 18 CSS targets for
San Diego County are quite specific and primarily focused on age and gender. Veterans,
LGBTQ, and immigrants are the other groups that are a bit broad. However, a number of the
targets appear to be focused on subpopulations that align with subgroups experiencing the
highest level of disparities in access to mental health services as noted in the CSI data (e.g.,
adults and older adults). Consistent with Orange County, the greater the number of targets, the
more challenging it becomes to address disparities. However, it is important to note that San
Diego County identified 12 WET targets that appear to be aligned with the CSS targets.
Recommendations in response to research question 2:
It is recommended that counties be provided with specific and streamlined guidelines to assess
local mental health population needs and to select specific and focused CSS targets. Better
targeting will lead to further improvement in the provision of mental health services, decreasing
disparities in access to services among those who are disproportionately in need. The following
recommendations are intended to help strengthen targeting on the county level:
2.1 Develop a targeting template for CCP requirements that assists counties in identifying
three to five CSS targets that are specific (e.g., age group, racial and ethnic group,
language, gender, high-risk community), relevant, accurate, and precise for each county
and city. Provide counties with examples of effective targeting as “best practice examples”
in an effort to improve focus on the high-risk populations that are in greatest need of
services, and as substantiated by county level data. Data gathered and entered into this
template can also be used as part of the counties' annual update, strengthening outreach
and recruitment activities, while fostering service provision to key target populations.
2.2 Offer technical assistance to help each county explore gaps in gathering, managing, and
analyzing CSS targeting data. Counties receiving MHSA funding to serve disadvantaged
groups and overcome disparities should be required to produce specific targets that
demonstrate a focused introspective assessment of needs within target groups that are
23
most disproportionately served, with a goal of increasing services to these populations.
Technical assistance can help counties achieve this goal.
2.3 Ensure that counties specifically target five or less target populations as an approach to
adequately identify not only disparities in services, but also strategies to address and
eventually reduce disparities. Specifically, when it comes to workforce education and
training, it is important that culturally congruent staff are hired to work with the counties’
CSS populations. Moreover, it is very likely that the 20 counties in Exhibit 5 that
highlighted five or fewer CSS targets were more successful in matching their WET targets
with their CSS target needs because they were more focused on priority populations.
Counties that focus on groups with specific characteristics such as, high-risk groups (e.g.,
“trauma-exposed individuals,” “children and youth in stressed families,” “adults with
serious mental illness who are imminently at risk of institutionalization or homelessness”),
appeared to be more effective in matching their CSS target populations to programmatic
developments.
Funders of existing mental health services and/or outreach and education (including DHCS,
DPH, OSHPD, and county departments of mental health) should coordinate and partner to
engage on the development of specific plans to implement the above recommendations.
Key Findings to Research Question 3:
How does the county’s workforce compare to the general population?
To the Medi-Cal population? To the CSS population?
Tables 7a–7bg also present WET targets for each county (please see page 2 of each county-
specific data table for targeting results). Overall, counties often targeted a large number of
population groups and subpopulations for WET targets. Most counties that presented mental
health service targets included more than five targets, and many included more than 10 targets.
Counties were asked to differentiate between CSS and WET targets to ensure a more accurate
assessment and to discern gaps. Completeness of data for these two target categories varied
across counties. A total of eight counties did not differentiate between these two types of
targets. Among the 25 counties that identified workforce targets, the targets frequently focused
on the need to improve the diversity of mental health service staff. Many CCPs highlighted the
need for hiring and training bilingual and bicultural mental health staff. References to hiring and
working with Latino staff, Asian and Pacific Islander staff, and Spanish-speaking staff members
appeared often. Several counties (e.g., Alameda, El Dorado, Stanislaus, Sutter-Yuba) also
included WET targets that indicated a need for hiring and training mental health professionals
with “lived experience,” meaning professionals who have experienced the effects of mental
health conditions in their own lives, or in the lives of those around them. Frequently reported
WET targets were:
1. Latino staff
2. Bilingual Spanish-speaking staff
3. Additional bilingual and bicultural staff
24
These findings point to the importance of language proficiency, cultural competency, and
diversity in a workforce. These findings are also in accordance with the literature on cultural
competence (Cabral & Smith, 2011) in that consumers will be more responsive to providers
whom the consumer perceives to be knowledgeable about his or her cultural background and
lived experiences.
Completeness of workforce data was limited in several counties. When workforce data were
included in CCPs, on numerous occasions data for several variables were missing. Among
counties that did include workforce data, many workforce profiles appeared to reflect the larger
general population of the county, and the population in need of services (as represented by CSI
data). Connections between workforce data, the general population, and target populations
deemed to have disparate needs typically were easier to see in well-organized CCPs. Exhibit 6
illustrates the number of workforce needs assessments included in CCP reports. Fifteen
completed needs assessments were included in the narrative of county-level CCP reports and
22 were attached as tables at the end of county-level CCP reports. A total of 11 workforce
needs assessments were not provided and 10 were incomplete or were not reviewed by our
evaluation team.
Although the findings in Exhibit 6 are limited by the incompleteness of the data, these findings
provide insight into the opportunity for workforce self-assessment within future CCP reports and
their applied utility within counties. The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) could
assist by working closely with counties to ensure that the data on workforce needs are relevant,
and that the evidence generated could show a strong connection between having a diverse
workforce and reducing disparities. An effective practice is for DHCS to reinforce a compliance
mechanism that would consist of site visits to accurately assess each county’s workforce
composition in relationship to the county’s population demographics.

Focusing on counties that included workforce data in their CCPs, we found that, by and large,
the composition of the mental health workforce was comparable to the general population data
presented by counties in their CCPs. Workforce data focused on the breakdown of county
mental health workforce by licensure status, agency status (e.g., internal, external), and race.
Thus, to compare workforce data to the general, Medi-Cal, and CSS populations, we are limited
to a focus on race. The proportions of mental health staff from each racial group in California
counties, as garnered from the CCP workforce data, tended to be similar to the racial
composition of the general population (see the second page of county-specific tables in the
appendices) in most counties.
When comparing county workforce data to the county-level Medi-Cal and CSS population data,
however, more differences were noted. The racial composition of the mental health workforce in
many counties demonstrated lower percentages of Latino staff than was needed according to
the breakdown of Medical and CSS data, which portrayed higher percentages of clients within
the Latino community. In some counties, there was also a disproportionately low percentage of
mental health staff that were from the Asian/Pacific Islander or Native American community than
was needed according to Medi-Cal and CSS data. The WET targets that were most often listed
by counties reflected a need and desire to address these disparities. Many counties listed the
training and hiring of Latino and Asian Pacific Islander staff as a highly ranked WET target, in
order to better meet the needs of the local mental health community. That is, a number of
counties also ranked the need for bilingual and bicultural staff to work with Latino and Asian
clients, as well as clients from a number of other cultures and language groups.
Recommendations in response to research question 3:
Recognizing the need of culturally and linguistically competent staff that demonstrates a
commitment to improve the delivery of services to unserved, underserved, and inappropriately
served communities is critically important in rectifying disparities. To achieve that goal, the
CCPs must reflect up-to-date workforce needs. We recommend the following actions to be
addressed primarily by OSHPD in close collaboration with the county departments of mental
health and other state agencies such as DHCS, DPH, and MHSOAC:
3.1 Develop a streamlined, easy to complete, workforce targeting template to examine and
monitor staff diversity and the individual needs of each county. Provide all counties with
these templates, and provide best practice workforce targeting examples to improve staff
diversity, bilingual capabilities, and cultural competence. Monitoring data gathered from
this workforce targeting template can inform county-level annual updates in an effort to
strengthen their workforce training and recruitment programs.
3.2 Offer technical assistance to help each county explore gaps in gathering, managing, and
analyzing workforce data. Existing templates that highlight the workforce composition on
the county level can be streamlined and improved for clarity. Counties receiving MHSA
funding to serve disadvantaged groups and overcome local disparities should be required
to produce outcomes that demonstrate increases in workforce cultural competence, and
evidence that disparities are decreasing. Technical assistance can help counties achieve
this goal.
26
3.3 Expand the opportunities for hiring and inclusion of providers with lived experience for
appropriate services, such as peer support groups. This recommendation’s core rests on
the idea that lived experiences will strengthen relationships between providers and
consumers within targeted communities. It may be worthwhile to share best practices from
counties that specifically targeted people with lived experiences (e.g. Alameda, El Dorado,
Stanislaus, and Sutter-Yuba).
3.3a Increase opportunities: (a) for career pathways for paraprofessionals, those with
lived experiences, promotoras and community navigators to enhance the diversify
the mental health workforce; (b) for interpreter training curricula for mental health
professionals; and (c) for staff cultural competence training programs that will
provide the most current cross-cultural knowledge and skills.
3.3b Emphasize language proficiency, cultural competency, and representative diversity
to resolve disparities is a strategic means of increasing integration of consumers
and families into the workforce. In analyses for the current report, most counties
included workforce targets that focused on cultural and linguistic competence. Use
of an updated and expanded version of the California Brief Multicultural Scale may
be worth considering. Counties currently use this scale to assess and train county
mental health staff in cultural competence, but stakeholders have expressed
concerns that it should be updated to meet current day needs.
3.4 Strengthen counties’ data collection methods to ensure adequate collection of data from
all MHSA programs. One way to achieve this is to involve target groups in the stakeholder
community process to identify target population priorities that mirror county needs. Doing
so is in line with the recommendations from 2013 MHSA audit by a California independent
auditor.
3.4a Ensure that all counties and MHSA-funded cities put emphasis on WET targets that
are specific (e.g., age group, racial and ethnic group, language, high-risk
community), relevant, accurate, and precise for each county and city. This will help
shape the next steps in improving evaluation approaches and mental health
outcomes, thereby contributing to reductions in disparities.
3.4b Improve the quality of care for the targeted groups by ensuring that mental health
staff members are able to communicate with consumers in a way that
acknowledges the consumer’s needs and perspectives tied to mental health. In
conjunction with this, counties should ascertain whether staff members implement
mental health programs with fidelity to ensure best practice in service delivery. This
speaks to our findings about counties being focused and directly connecting their
WET target populations with their CSS populations.
27
Conclusion, Practical Implications, Limitations, and
Future Research
As the MHSA reaches its 10th anniversary, mental health leaders have recognized that the act
has played and continues to fulfill an important role in transforming the mental health system by
ensuring that counties are conducting culturally relevant mental health services and reducing
disparities. The CCPs were designed to assess gaps in mental health service access and
provision, and workforce diversity. They were also designed to assist counties in developing
solutions to conquer current and future disparities in the mental health workforce and the
delivery of services. A central goal of the CCPs, combined with the commitment of the counties,
was to rectify the critical workforce shortages in the mental health industry by identifying gaps
and solutions in the delivery of services. The desired solutions would translate into a
transformation of the California mental health system that adequately responds to and
addresses mental health disparities across the state. Overall, the findings from our analysis
suggest that counties, especially those with strong data collection and monitoring capabilities,
and those that focus on three to five specific target populations are in a position to: (1) meet the
predominant requirement to increase language proficiency and cultural competency, and (2)
provide representative diversity in the workforce in order to begin to transform mental health
systems practices to reduce disparities.
Practical Implications
This report elucidates new points of reference that reveal the commitment of mental health
service providers during the past several years to address disparities in access to mental health
services and diversify their workforce. Evidence shows that MHSOAC, along with numerous
counties, demonstrated a commitment to reduce disparities in access to mental health services.
Our findings have several practical implications for MHSOAC as well as for counties. First, there
are implications for DHCS to continue analyzing counties’ response to reducing mental health
disparities using data from the CCPs. The use of the Department of Finance (DOF) data for
county-level population estimates was found to be the most effective method in examining
counties’ demographic variables and population changes. Additional requirements include, for
instance, strengthening the communication with counties about completing and using CCP data
to assess improvements in mental health access, disparities, and delivery and utilization of
culturally and linguistically competent services. Moreover, our report suggests that counties that
set clear objectives and realistic targets with fewer than five targets tend to be more effective in
matching mental health services with target populations. Achieving this consists of three steps.
First, streamlining the CCP requirements and submission processes reducing the number of
forms, and keeping documentation manageable, will ensure a higher CCP completion rate and
adequate time to review and assess how counties are responding to disparities. Next, adequate
technical assistance for counties that require support and guidance in setting realistic targets,
data identification, data management, data analysis, and data reporting. Finally, increase
efficiency and promptness of reporting by creating an online CCP submission system. That not
only would increase submission consistency, but also would expedite data entry, data
management and data analysis. Such improvements are of critical importance to the utility and
28
scoring of the CCP to analyze and assess how counties are responding to reducing mental
health disparities on an ongoing basis.
Second, DHCS and MHSOAC may also use our findings to invest in continued evaluation
activities to monitor future CCPs. Continued CCP evaluation can help monitor the adequate
collection and assessment of CCP data. More importantly, monitor the availability of adequate
resources to achieve MHSA’s goal to transform California’s mental health system into one that
is adequately responding to and addressing mental health disparities of underrepresented
communities as highlighted in the CCPs. That is, DHCS in close coordination with the
MHSOAC, should continue analyzing all CCP data in order to monitor progress and help
counties identify common trends in response to disparities.
Third, our findings have implications for assessing the effectiveness of county-level workforce
education, training and hiring practices related to language and cultural proficiency and
workforce diversity to address mental health disparities. For instance, because several counties
reported professionals with “lived experiences” as a priority, evaluations could focus on counties
training and hiring of professionals who have experienced the effects of mental health
conditions to reduce mental health disparities. Traditionally, consumers tend to be more
responsive to providers whom they perceive to be knowledgeable about his or her cultural
background and lived experiences. This is considered an important indicator of effectiveness in
counties appropriately matching mental health services with target populations. Therefore,
counties should continue offering incentives in the form of tuition stipends for graduate students
in professional mental health programs, and loan repayment programs for individuals with
graduate degrees—particularly for those working in rural areas or regions experiencing
workforce shortages. Additional incentives should support the licensure of ethnically and racially
diverse mental health providers (e.g., social workers and marriage and family therapists) to
increase the number of licensed providers throughout the state. The key is to develop and
sustain a culturally and linguistically competent mental health workforce consistent with the
culture, language, and other important characteristics (e.g., gender identity and sexual
orientation) of the targeted population. One strategy to diversify and sustain the mental health
workforce and address the bilingual and bicultural shortages is for counties to explore the
establishment of career pathways for immigrants who come from other countries with strong
qualifications as mental health providers.
Finally, strengthen the critical role that the Office of Statewide Health Planning & Development
(OSHPD) and MHSOAC can serve in helping counties improve their recruitment and retention
of bilingual and bicultural staff by facilitating provision of technical assistance and guidance, and
sharing effective practices from other counties that have demonstrated success. Working with
the CDPH’s Office of Health Equity (OHE) and to combine resources, could be a strategy to
strengthen the recruitment and retention of bilingual and bicultural staff.
29
Limitations and Suggestions for Future Research
This report was designed to analyze how the mental health system and counties respond to
reducing mental health disparities. One limitation of this report is that CCPs were not submitted
or where not available for one California county and two cities. Data in other counties, for which
we were able to review CCPs, were not always complete. The missing data make it difficult to
render absolute conclusions from findings with relationship to increasing workforce diversity and
reducing disparities. Again, more resources and technical support are needed to support
counties in compiling and presenting county-specific data in future CCPs.
Nevertheless, we believe that our findings are noteworthy and provide good challenges for
future research. For future research or analysis, MHSA researchers, at the local and state level,
should continue to examine and determine how data from the CCP can be used and improved
to assess counties’ continued commitment to respond to reducing mental health disparities. It
became clear from our analysis that: (1) Using the DOF as a data source is the most effective
approach for counties to obtain more consistent and concrete population estimates; (2)
Counties with fewer program targets focused on specific subpopulations in particular need of
mental health services seem to operate with more realistic benchmarks and yield better
outcomes; and (3) improving the collection, management, and analysis of data tied to CCPs will
allow for a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the county-level response to
mental health disparities across California. This is especially true for counties that serve and are
targeting unserved, underserved, and inappropriately served populations in order to reduce
mental health disparities.
A statewide commitment to stronger and improved CCPs, and implementation of changes
based on findings from this report, can continue to lead to a better understanding of and the
reduction in mental healthcare disparities across California. Another future research
recommendation is to put in place a mechanism that monitors the ongoing progress with
documented corrective feedback for each county so that positive and negative trends in
relationship to cultural competence are accurately measured and acted upon. Finally, future
research and evaluation findings from the CCPs should be aligned with the Affordable Care Act
(ACA) by: (1) exploring the integration of mental health services and primary care, and building
workforce diversity in underrepresented communities; (2) ensuring that evaluation and data
collection focuses on reducing mental health disparities for the most vulnerable communities;
and (3) re-directing resources to target underrepresented groups and families, especially those
traditionally low-income individuals and families, including immigrants, who have limited English
proficiency and who do not have access to adequate resources.

not apply to the county’s reality. No WET targets were noted.
