Historia y misión
Richmond Behavioral Health Foundation (RBHF), the 501(c)(3) non-profit entity of Richmond Behavioral Health (RBH), partners with people and organizations to create opportunity, provide resources, and secure needed funding. Together, we fearlessly champion the health, wellness, and recovery of individuals and families in our community, bringing essential care to children and adults through crisis intervention, mental health services, developmental support, primary medical care, and substance use treatment and prevention. RBH relies on community support to serve over 13,000 people a year – about 5% of Richmond’s population – regardless of ability to pay. Our vision is for an inclusive, healthy community where individuals have the courage to believe in a better tomorrow and are inspired to reach their highest potential. Our work together as a community is vital, because a society of wholly healthy individuals creates a vibrant, safe community.
La RBHF se creó en 2010 para apoyar los servicios y programas de la RBHA, así como a las personas que reciben dichos servicios.
Last year, RBHA served over 13,000 individuals - that's greater than 5% of the City's population. Approximately 30% of those we serve do not have insurance or any means to pay for services. Approximately 35% of the individuals served are children.
Prioridades de financiación
La RBHF sirve para respaldar la labor de la RBHA apoyando programas y servicios donde existen lagunas de financiación o donde no existe financiación. Mientras que la RBHA se centra en el tratamiento de la salud mental o el consumo de sustancias o en la prestación de servicios de apoyo a las personas con discapacidad intelectual o del desarrollo, la RBHF se centra en cómo podemos apoyar, mejorar y aumentar el acceso a estos servicios críticos en nuestra comunidad.
Las prioridades de financiación de la RBHF son:
- Innovative programs to promote health and wellness.
- Collaborative community partnerships to increase resources for individuals and their families.
- Consumer access to supportive services to improve treatment outcomes.
- Program and service funding and resources to fill gaps in funding.
- Capital resources to increase service capacity across the agency.
