When the BH2I project announcement became available the Health and Social Services Departments reached out to a Licensed Professional Counselor, who had previously worked with JBCI, to help write the grant application. Prior to being awarded the grant, we worked as a team to establish goals which would facilitate our ability to provide behavioral health services within our Health Clinic and improve integration, access, acceptance, and availability for tribal members and their families. For the first year, we set a total of 14 goals in the areas of behavioral health, medical services, collaboration, events, and billing. As of the conclusion of the first quarter, we have made significant strides in reaching 10 of those goals.
