Trust FY24/25 Budget Development
Introduction
The Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority’s overall purpose is to help beneficiaries thrive in their communities and avoid long-term institutionalization. One of the duties of the Trust is to develop a budget for Trust spending and recommendations for how the state will fund a comprehensive, integrated mental health program.
This page contains materials intended to inform Trust staff, trustees, and stakeholders in the FY24/25 budget development process.
The Trust uses a two year budgeting cycle. At their regular meeting on August 24 and 25, 2022 the board of trustees adopted the FY24/25 budget, which will be transmitted to the Governor and Legislature in September 2022 by the deadline defined in Alaska Statute. It is anticipated that trustees will consider revisions to the FY25 Trust budget in calendar year 2023.
