MS Selected for CCBHC Demonstration – Life Help Named Pilot Site

Life Help is proud to announce that Mississippi has been selected as one of 10 states to participate in the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Medicaid Demonstration Program through a collaborative effort of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). As part of this exciting opportunity, Life Help has been designated as one of two pilot sites.

CCBHC is widely recognized as the national gold standard for community based mental health care. It is designed on the core value that all people deserve access to effective mental health and substance use treatment. We are excited about what this designation means for the future of behavioral healthcare in the Mississippi Delta and surrounding area and look forward to working with the MS Department of Mental Health and the MS Division of Medicaid.
