Mental Health Association seeks Fulton County office; says peer-support contract is unused
Summary
Representatives from the Mental Health Association of Franklin and Fulton Counties told Fulton County commissioners Jan. 27 that they are searching for office space in the county and that the existing contract for Peer Support Services is not being used.
Carol Slemmer, Community Support Program Manager, and Scott Graham, Executive Officer of the Mental Health Association of Franklin and Fulton Counties, met with Fulton County commissioners Jan. 27 to outline services offered in the county and to request local office space.
Graham told commissioners that "nobody was using the contract for Peer Support Services," and the association provided a handout packet describing its programs. The association said the materials were for informational purposes and indicated interest in securing usable office space within Fulton County to improve local access to services.
Commissioners received the handout; no formal action or funding decision was recorded in the minutes. The exchange was presented as an informational briefing rather than a request for immediate county funding or contract changes.
The session followed a retirement-board quarterly review earlier in the morning; separate minutes are on file for that item.
