As part of the MHSA process, counties are expected to submit a three year plan including an update on Workforce, Education, and Training (WET). Our WET Plan update was recently presented and approved by the Mental Health Substance Abuse and Recovery Commission this November. This Plan Update was created with the input of over 600 community stakeholders and will guide BHRS’ training and workforce development efforts for the final 3 years of MHSA WET funding (FY 14/15 to FY 16/17). The input process consisted of 2 surveys, 14 meetings with specific stakeholder groups, and 2 community meetings that occurred between May and October 2014. Through the stakeholder process, in which many of you participated, 7 priority areas for training were identified and will serve as the focus for BHRS trainings for the next 3 years.
Our WET Plan Update emphasizes the training and workforce development needs of people with behavioral health lived experience and their family members. Our Lived Experience Academy will continue to train clients and family members to share their story and educate others on multiple behavioral health topics. This training program will be expanded in the coming years to teach advocacy skills as well. Clients/Consumers will also continue to have the opportunity to be trained in Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP) and to become certified WRAP facilitators. We will also fund the Lived Experience Scholarship program in which current and former behavioral health clients and family members can receive up to $500 to pursue education in the field of behavioral health.
The other workforce development efforts that we will pursue over the final 3 years of WET funding include the BHRS Intern/Trainee Program and Cultural Competency Stipend Program to strengthen diversity in our workforce; our Behavioral Health Career Pathways Program to encourage Daly City high school students’ interest in behavioral health careers; and our BHRS New-Hire Orientation and BHRS College to enhance staff professional development.
It will be an exciting 3 years full of many education and training opportunities!

Supt. Thomas Minshew
Since October of 2013, San Mateo County Behavior Health and Recovery Services Office of Diversity and Equity (ODE) in partnership with San Mateo County Office of Education (SMCOE) has provided free Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) trainings to staff from middle school and high schools throughout the county through Measure A tax funds. Thomas Minshew, Superintendent of the Jefferson Union High School District has become one of the program’s strongest and most proactive supporters. Mr. Minshew has made it a professional development goal of his district to train all 500 JUHSD employees by hosting two trainings a month at the district office in Daly City. Faculty members from Jefferson High School, Oceana High School, Terra Nova High School, Westmoor High School, Thornton High School as well as the Jefferson Adult School will all become certified Youth Mental Health First Aiders. In addition, three JUHSD staff are certified instructors of the course, providing in-house knowledge and experience from an administrative, teacher/GSA adviser and paraprofessional perspective. To date, Mr. Minshew has hosted seven Youth Mental Health trainings, certifying 108 of his employees. The Youth Mental Health First Aid program would like to express deep gratitude for Mr. Minshew’s efforts in supporting students and staff in his district. According to Mr. Minshew, “[Staff] is on the front lines with students who may have mental health issues, and they are the first responders in my eyes.” He also noted that staff has used YMHFA skills and techniques within days of completing the training in the front office, classrooms and with parents of the students they work with.
