Philadelphia County Funding Request Form

Similar to the CBH process to request additional funding or rate increases, DBHIDS created a centralized mechanism for the submission of funding requests to the County. Implementing this process provides a centralized inventory of funding requests from providers, partners, etc. If/When funding becomes available, requests with all required materials are reviewed and prioritized by the Behavioral Health Division and signed off on by the Commissioner.


Submitters will use this DBHIDS County Funding Request Form to submit funding proposals and/or requests.* This form includes rate requests, new program or concept requests, program expansion or modification requests, and reinvestment requests.


For questions regarding reinvestment proposals, please contact Special Advisor for Administration and Finance: Deputy Commissioner’s Office, Ava Ashley at ava.ashley@phila.gov.


For questions regarding all other requests, please contact Amanda David at amanda.david@phila.gov.


*Submission of request does not guarantee that funding will be approved or allocated.
