Why This Vote Matters
Richmond will spend $300,000 in federal grant money on mental health and addiction treatment services after council members voted unanimously to approve the expenditure plan. The funds come from a SAMHSA grant and will be divided between two organizations: $255,000 to NAHC and $45,000 to ONS to provide mental health support and substance abuse treatment to local residents during 2012-13. This was a routine budget approval for using grant money the city had already received from the federal government.
