Mental Health Association staff tell Fulton County commissioners they are seeking office space; peer-support contract unused
Summary
Mental Health Association representatives told commissioners they are seeking office space in Fulton County and said the county's Peer Support Services contract was not being used; a services handout was provided for commissioners' information.
Representatives from the Mental Health Association of Franklin and Fulton Counties met with the Fulton County Board of Commissioners on Jan. 27 to review services and discuss local needs. Carol Slemmer, Community Support Program Manager, and Scott Graham, Executive Officer, reported they are looking for office space within Fulton County and provided commissioners with a handout package describing services the association offers.
Scott Graham told commissioners that, as recorded in the meeting minutes, the county’s contract for Peer Support Services was not being utilized. Commissioners accepted the informational materials; the minutes do not record any formal motion or funding decision tied to the presentation.
The meeting record lists this as an informational discussion; the Mental Health Association staff did not ask the board to approve a contract or specific expenditure during the Jan. 27 session. Follow-up would be required if the association requests county space, funding, or contract amendments.
