Have you heard about the CARE Act?

“What is the CARE Act?”
The Community Assistance, Recovery, and Empowerment (CARE) Act provides community-based behavioral health services and supports to eligible Californians living with schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorders through a new civil court process focused on recovery.

"Why does it matter?"
The CARE Act offers an alternative to:
🚫 Involuntary hospitalization
🚫 Conservatorship
🚫 Jail or homelessness

“Who can qualify for the CARE Act?”
Adults (18+) with untreated schizophrenia or related psychoaffective disorders who are:
🔹 Not engaged in treatment
🔹 Struggling to survive safely
🔹 Likely to benefit from support

“Who can submit a petition for someone to participate in the CARE Act?”
Under the CARE Act, the following people can file a petition:
Family members
Licensed behavioral health professionals
Licensed clinicians
First responders
Public guardians and conservators
Certain judges or representatives

“What happens after a petition is filed?”
Once a petition is filed, the court reviews the request and asks the county’s behavioral health team to engage with the individual and assess whether they’re eligible for a CARE Plan.

It's that time of year! ✨🌈
Planning for Lake County's 4th Annual Pride Prom begins Friday the 16th! Interested in collaborating with peers to make the 4th annual Pride Prom a night to remember? Join us on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of each month from 4-5:30 PM for Pride Prom Planning Committee!

*The Harbor serves transition-aged youth ages 14–24, and Pride Prom reflects that same age range so our current and newly connected youth can participate in a space created specifically for them. We understand this range can raise concerns, which is why Pride Prom is a sober event with clear safety protocols, age-identifying wristbands, ID check-in, and trained chaperones and security present throughout the night. Above all, Pride Prom is designed to be a safe, affirming celebration where LGBTQIA2S+ youth and allies feel seen, valued, and supported
