Empowering New Beginnings and Building Stronger Futures

Financial and Health Ed Foundation, dba “Reintegration Services”

Founded in June 2022, our organization is dedicated to strengthening the San Benito County and Monterey County by providing compassionate support and practical solutions for those facing life’s toughest challenges. We serve veterans, unhoused individuals, justice-involved, other vulnerable populations who too often fall through the cracks of fragmented systems of care, and we will be able to serve Medi-Cal members if and when we become approved by CCAH for ECM/CS or CHW Services.

As of October 2025, we’re proud to share two major milestones:
✅ We’ve established a new office space to expand our in-person services.
✅ We’re now an approved Medi-Cal Provider with California’s Department of Health Care Services (DHCS)—a critical step toward becoming an approved Medi-Cal Provider with CCAH offering even more impactful programs through the Central California Alliance for Health.

(Starting in April 2026 we will be sub-contracted to provide CalAIM CHW Benefit Services using the platform “Pear Suite”, which is contracted and credentialed with CCAH!)

(Starting in April 2026 we are also seeking a partnership with The United Way of Monterey County to provide Financial Coaching and CHW Services at their facility at 232 Monterey Street, Salinas, CA)

Our nonprofit was founded by L. Mitchell, RN, and D. Bouie in June 2022, with the aim of helping people in our community who are underserved and in need of help, from the unhoused, the previously incarcerated, to all others who are at-risk!

We have been a client of CSUMB’s IIED Program since 2023. In October 2025 our nonprofit became an approved Medi-Cal Provider with the (DHCS) Department of Health Care Services! Using the Pear Suite platform, starting in April 2026, we will provide CHW services to our Medi-Cal Members, Private Insurance Members, and others seeking to better themselves and their situatuions.

As always, we will be seeking any help in acquiring building/office space for a future Shelter and an (LTORR) Transitional Reentry Program for the Justice Involved, and others who are substance abusers, unhoused, or on probation, that local and State Law Enforcement contractually sends to us to attend our future, various self-help programs!
