Information:
As of December 18, 2025 all 36 LMHA contracts have been entered into Contra Costa Health’s Contracts and Grants Unit for contract creation and development. At this time, one contract has been fully executed, 13 agency contracts are in the renewal process. Advance payment was offered to all agencies, with only one agency choosing this payment option. CCH staff has implemented office hours for all contractors to provide technical assistance and support.
On January 28, 2026, staff held its first mandatory 2026-27 LMHA Fiscal Training for all awarded grantees. The training was well received, with a total of 45 attendees. Following the training, all grantees were provided with the recorded training webinar, and other required fiscal templates and documents. In addition, staff have provided fiscal office hours with all grantees for technical assistance with their questions or concerns. The staff received an abundance of positive feedback for the standardization of LMHA’s fiscal requirements and its transparency of the internal reimbursement process and procedures. Staff will follow up the 2026-27 LMHA Fiscal Training program reporting and evaluate expectations and requirements for sharing their impact and overall health outcomes to the LMHA community. LMHA grantees will showcase their work to the LMHAC and greater community for collaboration and awareness.
