Mental Health Association seeks office space in Fulton County; peer-support contract reported unused
Summary
Representatives of the Mental Health Association of Franklin and Fulton Counties told commissioners they are seeking office space in Fulton County and that the county contract for peer support services currently has no users.
Representatives from the Mental Health Association of Franklin and Fulton Counties informed the Fulton County commissioners on Jan. 27 that the group is searching for office space in the county and provided commissioners with a handout outlining services.
Carol Slemmer, Community Support Program Manager, and Scott Graham, Chief Executive Officer, said the organization was making an informational presentation and noted that the contract for Peer Support Services had no current participants in Fulton County. The association requested the commissioners’ awareness as it explores options for local space to deliver services.
The minutes record the informational briefing and distribution of a services handout; no formal action, funding or lease approvals were taken during the commissioners’ open meeting. Commissioners were given the handout for informational purposes.
Background: The Mental Health Association serves Franklin and Fulton counties and provides community support programs. The minutes indicate the association seeks a physical presence in Fulton County to better serve residents, but the transcript does not record any follow-up commitments or timelines from county officials.
