Abstract
The 2003 Texas 78th Legislature passed a bill that implemented several strategies to help realize a $1 billion decrease to health and human services spending (Senate Research Committee, 2003). A component of House Bill (HB) 2292 aimed at cost savings was the requirement for implementation of a resiliency and disease management model of service delivery in public mental health. As operationalized by the newly formed Department of State Health Services, the result was the legislation of evidence-based practice in community mental health in Texas. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyze the policy change requiring a resiliency and disease management model for children's public mental health in response to HB 2292.
