Rural Children's Mental Health Consortium approves FY27 budget; allocates remaining funds to wellness and outreach
Summary
The consortium reviewed FY26 expenditures and approved the FY27 budget as presented, moving roughly $3,100 of remaining FY26 funds toward wellness baskets and outreach; Rebecca McGough moved the budget, Michelle Sandoval seconded and the motion passed.
The consortium reviewed current fiscal-year expenditures (web hosting $1,920; consortium support and indirect costs $6,480; a $1,500 request already submitted to fiscal; youth mental health book printing $11,900) and discussed remaining funds. Staff reported a budget balance of approximately $3,100 available to spend before the fiscal year end and proposed directing that remainder to wellness baskets and outreach supplies for schools and rural counseling offices.
Rebecca McGough moved to accept the FY27 budget as presented; Michelle Sandoval seconded. The chair called for the vote and the motion passed with aye votes and no recorded opposition. Members noted small line-item corrections (rounding a penny) for neatness and discussed continuing flexibility to move funds between existing categories later if needed.
Why it matters: Approving the budget authorizes planned outreach and event-related expenditures, including wellness baskets, promotional items, and support for community events that the consortium uses to distribute resources and information to rural areas. Staff said they will finalize the document and send it to fiscal for approval before July 1.
