Commissioners authorize $15,931.30 outpatient drug‑court treatment subrecipient agreement
Summary
The board approved a subrecipient agreement for outpatient drug court treatment services funded through the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Behavioral Health Administration grant; agreement term runs March 16–June 30, 2015, for $15,931.30 and names Step N2 Recovery Services LLC (also referenced as Step N2) as the subrecipient.
The Commissioners of St. Mary's County on April 28 approved a fiscal‑year‑2015 subrecipient agreement to fund outpatient drug‑court treatment services through a Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH) Behavioral Health Administration grant.
Lori Jennings‑Harris, Director of Aging and Human Services, and Matt Riesdorf, prevention and treatment coordinator, presented the agreement, which covers the period March 16 through June 30, 2015, and carries an amount of $15,931.30. The agreement identifies Step N2 Recovery Services LLC as the provider of outpatient treatment services for participants in the county’s drug‑court program.
A motion was made to approve and authorize the county president to execute the subrecipient agreement related to Project MD1597; the board approved the motion by voice vote, per the meeting transcript. No roll‑call tally is recorded in the excerpt.
Commissioner discussion during the item included a separate, unrelated conversation about programming at the Garvey Senior Activity Center (sewing and exercise classes, donations and possible fees); staff said the sewing and quilting groups currently do not pay to use the Garvey Center and that donations are occasionally accepted. That side conversation did not change the grant‑related motion or its approval.
The subrecipient agreement requires county execution of the documents to allow Step N2 Recovery Services LLC to deliver outpatient substance‑use treatment services to drug‑court participants under the previously approved DHMH BHA grant.
