Welcome
In 1995, the Minnesota legislature passed legislation authorizing pilot projects that would result in systemic
change in the delivery of mental health services for adults with serious and persistent mental illness. The Region IV
South Mental Health Initiative is one of the 15 projects statewide that are involved in redesigning and implementing
improved systems for delivering mental health services in communities.
Region IV South includes the west central Minnesota counties of Douglas, Grant, Pope, Stevens, and Traverse.
The Adult Mental Health Initiatives, administered by the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), give
local mental health authorities the ability to design a community-based delivery system to meet their needs and
entrust them to accomplish them.
