Napa County awarded $4.7 million to convert facility into Behavioral Health Treatment Center
Summary
County Director Jennifer Yasumoto reported a $4.7 million grant to convert a 21,000-square-foot facility into a Behavioral Health Treatment Center that will add residential treatment, withdrawal management, a Sobering Center and a Mental Health Rehabilitation Center, expanding SUD capacity from 35 to 58 beds by year-end.
Jennifer Yasumoto, Napa County Director of Health and Human Services, told the Behavioral Health Board on April 8 that the county received a $4.7 million grant to convert a 21,000-square-foot facility into a Behavioral Health Treatment Center (BHTC).
Yasumoto said the BHTC will include residential treatment and withdrawal-management services, a Sobering Center and a Mental Health Rehabilitation Center and will increase substance-use-disorder capacity from 35 to 58 beds. The project was approved by the Board of Supervisors and is expected to be completed by the end of 2026. The announcement referenced recent legislative changes such as SB 43 as part of the statewide context for expanding behavioral-health infrastructure.
County staff said next steps include coordinating construction and site visits while continuing program and staffing planning. The Board did not take a separate vote on the project during the April 8 meeting; Yasumoto framed the update as an informational status report.
