Atlas Analysis
A high-value statewide technical-assistance opportunity at the intersection of geriatric behavioral health, supportive housing, home care, care coordination, peer services, workforce development, sustainability and quality improvement. The strongest applicants will have established statewide training and technical-assistance capacity, demonstrated older-adult behavioral-health expertise, practical knowledge of Medicaid and long-term-care systems, and the ability to support both urban and rural providers. This is a single statewide contractor opportunity rather than a direct service grant to individual providers.
