Board members note social-services changes, Zion’s exit from Harbor Point and time-sensitive opioid email
Summary
Board members reported recent meetings with social-service partners, said Zion has vacated Harbor Point (ending overnight residency), and discussed a time-sensitive opioid-related email that may require a DocuSign signature to accept funds.
Board members reported a series of interagency updates during the communications portion of the meeting.
One member said they had attended a juvenile-detention meeting and a Wabansi meeting and noted “a very interesting one because of all the changes with HHS,” without detailing the changes. The same or another member told the board that Zion had terminated services at Harbor Point and that staff were moving out; “So there will no longer be any of the overnight in residency for the emergency,” the member said.
Separately, a member raised an email about opioid settlement funds that appeared time-sensitive and may require a signature through DocuSign. The member said they were cautious about opening the email in the meeting and planned to review it later; they noted that the county needs to accept the funds and that paperwork would likely be required.
Board members did not make formal motions or votes related to these reports during the meeting; members said they would learn more at upcoming external meetings.
