In 2004, California voters passed Proposition 63, a ballot initiative to increase funding for mental health care by taxing 1 percent of personal income over $1 million. Now called the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), the goal was to reform California's mental health system to provide community based services and encourage an innovative, recoveryfocused, and culturally competent approach to care. This study attempts to examine if MHSA and its components have the desired impact on the target population. To investigate the question, two programs are analyzed that served similar clients using the same service model with data collected April 2007 through June 2008. Both programs used Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) as their recovery model in serving clients with mental health issues; one of the programs was funded under MHSA and the other was not. The hypothesis of this study is that the program that received MHSA funding and therefore required to follow guidelines set under MHSA will have higher fidelity to the ACT model and also have better client outcomes than the program that is funded through the larger traditional mental health department. Outcomes were measured by comparing client scores in a variety of outcome measures collected monthly by program staff, and by analyzing fidelity assessments conducted on each program. A Student's t-test was used to compare percentages of clients with improved or stable scores between the programs in several outcome areas (including mental health recovery stage, substance abuse, residential, employment, and educational status). Only one of the five outcome measures, the mental health recovery stage, showed a significant difference in the percentage of clients with "stable or improved" scores (p=.011) with a larger percent of clients in the MHSA-funded program improving or remaining stable. However, the traditionally funded ACT program scored significantly higher on the Dartmouth Assertive Community Treatment Scale, which measures program fidelity to the evidence-based model. These are mixed results and do not strongly prove or disprove the hypothesis. These mixed results raise more questions and reflect the need for further study and improved data measures. Analyzing outcomes of this unique legislation is essential to understanding the impact it has on individuals and families, their communities and the service delivery system.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze Proposition 63, which later became the Mental Health Serviced Act (MHSA) of 2004. This legislation imposed a 1% increase in taxes for California residents with adjusted gross annual income over $1 million. MHSA provided funding to expand the mental health programs and services including prevention, early intervention, education and training programs. The analysis intended to explore the benefits and consequences of the tax increase, and how mental health services were impacted under MHSA. This study scrutinized a historical review of mental health services in the United States, in the first years of the 20th Century, Deinstitutionalization, and enactment of policies related to mental health. Using David Gil's 1992 modified policy analysis framework, the analysis concluded that the MHSA legislation has potentially increased mental health services for individuals with mental illness and their families. However, this study also found that the lawmakers failed to provide proper guidance for effective program evaluation.

The implementation of the California Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) represents a significant legislative wave of change for mental health services to children, adults, and seniors who are suffering with severe chronic mental health conditions. It aims to expand the state's mental health system by taxing millionaires and providing MHSA funds to create innovative preventative and Full-Service Programs (FSPs). This initiative provides better service delivery options to the underserved and chronically ill population to assist with long-term care. Furthermore, the MHSA expands access to services by designing new behavioral health programs and integrating new approaches for mentally ill individuals to ensure their needs are met. This paper intends to conduct a policy analysis of the Mental Health Service Act, Proposition 63, to analyze how affectively it has addressed the issues of inadequate mental health services. In doing so, the researchers will explore the social problem that led to the policy and contribute to existing knowledge by further examining the context, planning, programming, and evaluation of the policy. In addition, the researchers will analyze the progress of the amended policy in 2018.
