Commission approves full-time, grant-dependent case manager for Veterans Treatment Court
Summary
Commissioners approved converting a previously grant-funded part-time Veterans Treatment Court position into a full-time case manager, contingent on continued grant funding and with the understanding the role ends if the grant expires.
Williamson County commissioners approved converting a grant-funded, part-time Veterans Treatment Court role into a full-time case manager position, with the motion explicitly contingent on the continued existence of grant funds.
A commissioner explained that the court had an unfilled, grant-funded part-time service coordinator position in the prior fiscal year and has received grant approval to convert that role to a full-time case worker. Staff said the grant covers salary and insurance and that "the position would only exist as long as the grant funds exist." The commissioner offering the motion added the vote language would include the contingency on grant availability.
Commissioner Pady, who identified himself as a veteran, said he supports the change: "as a veteran myself I know what this court does and I know what they do for people." The motion was moved, seconded and passed by voice vote with the chair noting the motion carried 4-0.
The approved position is explicitly grant-dependent; county staff said the role would terminate if grant funding lapses and that finance vetted the request.
