4440 Department of State Hospitals

The California Department of State Hospitals (DSH) leads the state's mental health system, ensuring the availability and accessibility of effective, efficient, and culturally competent services. Advocacy, education, innovation, outreach, understanding, oversight, monitoring, quality improvement, and the provision of direct services accomplish this mission.

Since department programs drive the need for infrastructure investment, the department has a related capital outlay program to support this need. For the specifics on the Department of State Hospitals' Capital Outlay Program see "Infrastructure Overview."
