Poppy Life Care Receives IPP Capacity Building Grant from CalOptima Health

Poppy Life Care is the leading provider of Integrative Holistic Mental Health and Wellness services in Orange County. We are excited to announce that we have received an IPP capacity-building grant from CalOptima Health. The grant will further help enhance the quality and accessibility of mental health services in Orange County.

What does this grant mean for Orange County?

The IPP Capacity Building Grant will enable Poppy Life Care to better support the inappropriately served & most vulnerable populations by:

  • Improving access to healthcare services: create more opportunities to explore best practices when serving our clients via telehealth & in-person appointments, giving clients access to care from anywhere at any time. 
  • Onboarding highly qualified professionals: as we expand our reach in serving the youth and their families in Orange County and Southern California, we must grow our network of experienced and aligned practitioners to offer complimentary care to traditional medicine and mental health therapies. 
  • Improving the quality of our care: We take an integrative whole-person approach to mental health and wellness and know it is crucial for our entire team to stay up-to-date and in compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)  -HIPPA as we collaborate with providers to collect patient data. This allows us to bridge the gap between medical professionals and holistic health practitioners. 

CalOptima Health’s support highlights how vital a hybrid approach to Mental Health & Wellness Services is for a thriving community. By supporting organizations like Poppy Life Care, CalOptima Health leads patient care by offering a whole-person approach to medicine and treatments.

Together, we are committed to supporting the underserved and most vulnerable populations in Orange County by providing education, resources, therapies, holistic practices, and compassionate practitioners who will impact the lives of those we connect with in our communities and beyond.
