Gov. Gavin Newsom revealed the CARE Court initiative aims to assist severely mentally ill individuals, emphasizing its priority on those struggling to care for themselves.
California health officials report that while initial objectives for CARE Court have fallen short, expanding to all 58 counties is expected to aid 2,000 adults by year's end.
'We're pleased to see how many people have come through and how appropriate those referrals have been so far,' said Corrin Buchanan, emphasizing the program's focus.
The CARE Act represents a historic shift in California's approach, allowing civil court judges to mandate treatment plans that include housing and healthcare for the mentally ill.
