Summary

Riley County Community Corrections requested and commissioners approved submittal of two City of Manhattan community support grants: $3,750 for juvenile services and $26,325 for adult services to fund testing, treatment and related services.

Megan Lewis of Riley County Community Corrections asked the commission to approve two grant applications to the City of Manhattan's community support fund: $3,750 for juvenile services and $26,325 for adult services, to cover intervention, testing supplies, lab confirmations, inpatient treatment transportation and related evaluations.

"Our 1st application is...for the amount of $3,750...The 2nd is for our adult services...That request is for a total of $26,325," Lewis said. Commissioners moved and approved both submittals.

Why it matters: the requested funds support local corrections supervision and treatment services that affect community safety and rehabilitation efforts. Approval authorizes staff to submit the applications; final awards depend on the city's review process.
