•
Restore Language on Delaying STEP-VA (2020 Special Session General Assembly Action - 322 #1c) Decision Package
  This amendment restores language that was inadvertently stricken in the introduced budget which eliminates the requirement that Community Services Boards or Behavioral Health Authority provide STEP-VA services beyond those that are funded in Chapter 854, 2019 Acts of Assembly, unless an appropriation is available and an allotment of funds is made. The budget passed in March provided additional funding outpatient services, peer support services, expanded crisis services and military and veterans mental health services through STEP-VA, and when funding was unallotted in April due to the pandemic language was added eliminating the requirement to proceed with implementation of these services. The introduced budget eliminates funding for these additional services through STEP-VA. While companion amendments restore funding for STEP-VA in Item 482.20, this language is included in case of unforeseen future revenue and spending adjustments.
•
Forensic Discharge Planning in Jails General Assembly Adjustment
  This amendment restores $2.1 million the second year from the general fund to expand forensic discharge planning services at three additional jails with a high percentage of inmates with serious mental illness. The General Assembly provided $1.6 million from the general fund in fiscal year 2020 for discharge planning services at two local jails. Discharge planning includes linking inmates with serious mental illness to community providers for treatment and housing and other needed services as they transition from jails to the community. These funds were included in Chapter 1289, 2020 Virginia Acts of Assembly, but subsequently unallotted in April due to the COVID-19 pandemic and eliminated in Chapter 56, 2020 Special Session I Virginia Acts of Assembly.

General Fund $0 $2,100,800
