Over $190 million in state funding will be used to build eight new mental health and drug treatment facilities across the Bay Area, part of a $6.4 billion bond approved in 2024 to address California's shortage of treatment beds. The latest round of Proposition 1 grants, announced by Gov. Gavin Newsom, totalling nearly $1.2 billion statewide. The projects include $7 million for an outpatient mental health center in Berkeley, $14 million for a 44-bed residential drug treatment facility on Treasure Island in San Francisco, and $25 million to an integrated sobering and treatment center in San Mateo. The facilities are expected to open within a few years.
