County to accept two grants: $102,237 school mental-health pilot and $351,040 KDADS award for IDD services
Summary
Mayor Stolitz previewed two grant-funded programs: a $102,237 Comcare/Valley Center School District pilot to provide mental-health assistance in schools, and a $351,040 KDADS grant to begin services for dually diagnosed IDD patients with severe mental-health needs.
Mayor Stolitz described Item M, a $102,237 grant to fund a mental-health pilot program through Comcare and the Valley Center School District to provide mental-health assistance to students. He also previewed Item N, a $351,040 grant (described in the transcript as a KDADS grant) intended to begin services for dually diagnosed IDD patients with severe mental-health issues.
"This is a grant process, program," Mayor Stolitz said when summarizing both items; he called the KDADS award "considerable" and confirmed Tim was not available to discuss details. No formal approvals were recorded during the agenda review; both grants were previewed for the consent agenda.
The items will appear on next Wednesday's consent agenda and, if approved, will establish grant-funded services and pilot programming tied to Comcare and school-based mental-health supports.
