Eligibility  [hide this]

Eligible Proposals must meet the following minimum eligibility criteria:

Non-profit, tribal or governmental organizations with a demonstrated commitment to supporting rural community members to achieve their potential, and to participate in cross-system programming and services for the benefit of residents of rural King County.

The following applications will be prioritized during review:

  1. Applications that propose culturally, and geographically responsive approaches that reduce isolation, increase collaboration, and sustain lessons learned and service gains through previous rural behavioral health investments;
  2. Applications that clearly articulate the community identified behavioral health needs within their rural community and demonstrate how the proposal responds to those needs; and
  3. Organizations that are working to build behavioral health capacity within the communities to be served.

The most competitive proposals will address one or more of the following:

  • Applicants who are existing or prospective members of the King County Integrated Care Network (KCICN) who can demonstrate the capacity and intent to bill Medicaid for eligible services.
  • Applicants who cannot bill Medicaid directly who include strategies to improve access to Medicaid among Medicaid-eligible individuals, such as supporting individuals to apply for Medicaid, or demonstrating collaborative efforts with licensed community-based behavioral health providers.
