$9 Million Grant Awarded to Clermont County to Help Children In Need
“This is a great day for Clermont County children and their families,” said Clermont Department of Job and Family Services (DJFS) Director Tim McCartney. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has selected the Clermont County Mental Health and Recovery Board (MHRB) as one of 19 agencies from across the country to receive multi-million dollar grants to develop and expand care systems for children and youth with serious emotional disturbances, and provide support to their families. “The MHRB will receive an almost $9 million grant to expand programs to help young people, between the ages of 3 and 21, with emotional and behavioral problems,” said Clermont MHRB Director Karen Scherra. “It is the largest grant we’ve ever received!” The grant was submitted, in collaboration with the Clermont DJFS, Family and Children First, Clermont Juvenile Court, and other local providers and child-service agencies.
