County accepts State DHHS mental‑health contract as participant in regional program
Summary
Daggett County accepted a renewal of the State of Utah Department of Health and Human Services contract for mental‑health services; the county remains a participant in the Northeastern Counseling Center program and staff said the contract follows previously approved terms.
The commission accepted a renewal of the State of Utah Department of Health and Human Services contract related to mental‑health services. Staff said the agreement is the same contract the county has participated in previously with the Northeast Basin/ Tri County Mental Health and Substance Abuse Local Authority (doing business as Northeastern Counseling Center), and that the county’s obligations under the state contract were being met.
A commissioner noted the item was informational but moved to accept the contract as presented; the motion passed by voice vote. Tri County Health staff indicated the county is not a primary contracting party for the mental‑health services listed and that those services are administered by Northeastern Counseling Center under the state contract.
