The Behavioral Health Administration (BHA) is the state administration responsible for ensuring all people in Colorado have access to quality mental health and substance use disorder services, regardless of where they live, or ability to pay. BHA will help bring together community groups and governmental agencies to design a behavioral health system for all people in Colorado that is easy to access, and offers high-quality care that considers the whole person and their needs. As required by Colorado law, the BHA was to create a performance monitoring system to track capacity and performance of all behavioral health providers, including those that contract with managed care entities or behavioral health administrative services organizations, and inform of needed changes to the behavioral health system in the state. For more information about the BHA or to access the Performance Hub visit: https://bha.colorado.gov/ - to contact the Performance Hub Team via email: cdhs_bha_performancehub@state.co.us

The Wellness Court was established in 2016 with the goal to increase public safety, reduce recidivism, and lower the costs of incarceration by holding defendants in the Municipal Court whose criminal behavior is affected by mental illness accountable, and assisting them to achieve long term stability, self-sufficiency, and become law-abiding community members. As part of the Court's community outreach, Presiding Judge Shawn Day states “I’m open to meeting with any community leader to discuss any concern they have,” Day said. “We can do a better job of communicating with them and sitting down at the table and listening to what the concerns are, why people are losing trust and confidence in the court.”
