Alameda County’s Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Division collaborated with Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) and Underserved Ethnic Language Population (UELP) programs to create an outcome-based survey aimed at gathering feedback from PEI/UELP participants who have received services via MHSA-funded counseling services, workshops, community events, and other support programs.

First developed in 2014 and administered in 2015, the survey has undergone multiple revisions from 2016 to 2023. UELP providers vetted, implemented each updated version, and ensured accessibility and equity through language justice by translating the survey into 23 languages. In early 2024, UELP providers participated in a workgroup to evaluate the survey tool, concluding that it would remain unchanged, with updates limited to translation needs only.

In 2025, minor changes were made to the survey format to enhance accessibility and ease of use, including the addition of an embedded drop-down menu for more efficient navigation across the 23 supported languages. Additionally, all language translations were re-revised and improved to increase clarity and cultural relevance.

For the first time, in-progress data will be made available during the survey collection timeline, beginning in May 2025. These data snapshots reflect responses collected up to the prior data refresh day (maximum of 24-48hrs) and are not considered final.

The following data reports focus on key domains such as identity formation, mental health perceptions, community wellness, cultural connections, resource access, transformation of mental health services, and workforce development. Ultimately, we aim to identify strengths and areas for expansion in our services, ensuring we meet the community’s and provider’s needs as effectively as possible.
