California voters passed MHSA (Proposition 63) in November 2004; the law was enacted January 1, 2005. MHSA places a 1% tax on personal incomes over $1,000,000. Counties receive funds through the State with the goal of transforming the public mental health system into one that is consumer friendly, recovery oriented, accessible, and culturally competent. For copies of the MHSA Plans, please visit: https://www.edcgov.us/government/mentalhealth/mhsa/pages/mhsa_plans.aspx.
