FUNCTION:
The
Illinois Community Mental Health Act mandates that each Community Mental
Health Board in the state:
· Review and
evaluate community mental health services and facilities
· Plan for programs
of community mental health services and facilities
· Consult with
others regarding the most efficient delivery of services
· Appropriate funds
to maintain mental health services and facilities
The
Board realizes that it exists at the will of the community as expressed by
passing the referendum. The Board is mandated to assure on behalf of the
community that those in need of mental health, developmental disability or
substance abuse services will have those services available to them. To
accomplish this task the Board must continuously engage in policy
development focused on their governance of all access, quality and cost
concerns for their constituency's behavioral healthcare needs.
