Board renews $2,508 county contract with New Horizons Behavioral Health for FY2025
Summary
The commission renewed its FY2025 agreement with New Horizons Behavioral Health for $2,508 (stated as $209 monthly) to continue mental‑health and substance‑use services to county residents; the vote was approved at the July 2 meeting.
Cusseta–Chattahoochee County commissioners voted July 2 to renew the county’s FY2025 agreement with New Horizons Behavioral Health to continue mental‑health and substance‑use services for county residents.
The agreement amount recorded in the packet is $2,508 for the fiscal year, described in the provider letter as $209 per month. The scope listed in the agreement includes child and adolescent mental‑health services, adult mental‑health services, and comprehensive drug and alcohol services; services are to be provided from the community mental‑health center in Columbus or a local satellite.
A motion to renew the agreement was made and adopted in the regular meeting minutes. The packet includes a provider signature line from Andrea B. Winston, chief executive officer of New Horizons, and an invoice for FY2024 as supporting material.
The minutes show the contract will continue on the same annual funding level as FY2024 and requires the county to return a signed agreement to the provider to finalize the arrangement.
Next steps: county staff to return a signed agreement to New Horizons and reflect the FY2025 allocation in the county’s administration and accounting records.
