Section 223 community mental health demonstration — CFDA 93.829
SECTION 223 DEMONSTRATION PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, CFDA 93.829, shows $546.1M in USAspending.gov obligations.

Key figures
- CFDA 93.829 shows $546.1M in USAspending obligations, not outlays or patients served.
- The extract lists 169 awards and 167 recipients — nearly one row per identifier.
- 43 states appear; the packet has no per-state dollar split.
- This listing is the Section 223 demonstration line, not a combined mental-health budget.
What $546.1M on CFDA 93.829 records
USAspending.gov attaches $546.1M in obligations to assistance awards tagged 93.829. SpendingVault reprints that catalog total. The listing title names Section 223 demonstration programs to improve community mental health services. Demonstration, as a word in the title, does not come with a results table in this extract. The $546.1M is commitments on 169 awards, not a certified-clinic census.
No fiscal year is supplied. Other behavioral-health assistance listings exist. Adding this $546.1M to a Medicaid total or to a different SAMHSA-branded CFDA would mix catalog numbers. This page answers only what 93.829’s assistance awards show. If a clinic press note cites a different federal figure, match the listing number first.
One hundred sixty-nine awards at this dollar scale is a mid-volume file. The packet has no median award size. Do not divide $546.1M by 169 and publish the quotient as a typical demonstration grant. Amount-sort on the hub is the check. Clinic type and payer mix are not in the packet.
169 awards and 167 recipients, nearly one-to-one
One hundred sixty-seven recipients hold 169 awards. The two counts are almost equal, which is compatible with mostly one award per identifier. The packet does not publish that as an official ratio. Award rows can still include a modification. Recipient count is distinct identifiers, not a count of service sites or clinicians.
A 167-recipient list is large enough that search on the program hub helps. Repeat identifiers, if any among the extra two awards, mean the same organization received more than one recorded row. Repeat appearance is not a quality finding. Caseloads, wait times, and crisis-line volumes are not in this extract.
43 states on the demonstration extract
The file counts 43 states. That is wide coverage without claiming every jurisdiction in a 50-plus extract. The packet does not name the 43 or split the $546.1M among them. Place of performance for a clinic network may be a headquarters state. This packet does not say which location field fed the count.
Forty-three states is a coverage statistic, not a prevalence map and not a Medicaid-expansion comparison. A state with many of the 169 awards could still hold a small share of dollars. Without a dollar split, this guide will not rank jurisdictions. Use award-level place fields on the hub for a particular state.
Demonstration obligations are not treatment outlays
Community mental health billing, Medicaid encounters, and private insurance claims are different ledgers. CFDA 93.829’s $546.1M is USAspending assistance-award obligations on this demonstration listing. Mixing those encounter dollars into $546.1M would build a homemade “all community mental health” figure the packet does not support.
Outlays are payments. Obligations are commitments. Demonstration awards can draw on a different schedule than the obligation date. This extract does not report outlays or patients served. Cite $546.1M as recorded commitments on 169 awards. Do not describe the sum as money already in clinic operating accounts. This page does not offer treatment advice.
Not a combined behavioral-health catalog
Other mental-health and substance-use listings can sit near 93.829 on the all-programs index because their obligation totals occupy a similar band. Similar scale is not similar statutory authority. Do not add this $546.1M to a neighboring CFDA. Keep Section 223 demonstration programs on their own catalog row.
Opening the 93.829 table
The program page for this demonstration listing holds the 169 awards and 167 recipients behind $546.1M. Filter by location if a state is the question; the 43-state count will not name them. Agency pages are a different USAspending cut; this packet does not name the awarding agency, so the $546.1M stays on the CFDA card. Clinic certification lists remain a different file than this obligation rollup. The all-programs index compares catalog scale without merging behavioral-health totals. Wait-time dashboards and crisis-line volumes are not this CFDA 93.829 extract. This page does not rank clinics.
