RATIONALE FOR GRANT DECISION
The Colorado Health Access Fund(CHAF)provides this rationale so you may better understand the basis
for our approval of your grant proposal.We hope this information is useful for your organization.
Date: July 24,2015
Organization: Eagle County Government
Recommendation: RESOLVED,that a grant of$270,000 over three years be made to
Eagle County Government for the collaborative proposal submitted
on May 15,2015.
Grant Period: September 1,2015—August 31,2018
Rationale
1. The Total Health Alliance(THA)is focused on increasing access to behavioral health services for
low-income individuals,as well as those for whom English is a second language.THA is working
to create integrated delivery systems. Individuals will have increased access to behavioral health
services as Law Enforcement will be better able to identify individuals in need and be able to
make immediate referrals.
2. THA will use existing networks and resources to refer and transition clients. Funding for staffing
will allow the collaborative to offer better coordination of care and systems level coordination
for directing and monitoring the progress of the collaborative.
3. This work is grounded in community need and has strong,diverse partnerships across non-
profits,local government,law enforcement,and clinical care.
4. THA will be housed within DHS because it makes more sense given that DHS is likely to have
more direct contact with Eagle County residents with high health care needs.Government is the
lead partner for this collaborative as it is seen as a neutral party by the other key stakeholders.
5. We look forward to more information about your coordinators'efforts to strengthen the
evaluation component.*
