The Monroe County Department of Mental Health (MCOMH) is committed to improving the health and quality of life for county residents affected by mental illness, developmental disabilities, alcohol and other drugs.
MCOMH is an executive branch within the New York State Department of Human Resources Services, the government agency authorized to receive and allocate public mental health funds pursuant to New York State law. As the agency responsible for systemic oversight and promotion of prevention and treatment programs, MCOMH:
- Develop a comprehensive county plan for mental health, developmental disabilities, and alcohol/drug abuse services.
- It allocates funding to local agencies based on community priorities, treatment outcomes, and program performance.
- Ensures coordination of services across multiple levels of care and various community providers.
- Support systems transformation to provide flexible services that are person/family-centered, strengths-based, culturally appropriate, recovery-oriented, and evidence-based.
To accomplish these objectives, MCOMH oversees the local service system through a variety of subcontracting agreements, provides financial oversight and technical assistance to agencies, and collaborates extensively with other DHS and county departments, service providers, and community groups. Provider contracts are overseen on MCOMH’s behalf by Coordinated Care Services, Inc. (CCSI). For more information about CCSI, click here.
