Milwaukee County substance abuse program loses key federal grant
As the newly installed Milwaukee County Mental Health Board begins to reshape how care is delivered in the county, a key program for people with substance abuse problems is losing a major funding source. Officials at the WIser Choice network learned late last month they were losing $3.5 million in federal grants, a 30 percent reduction in the program's funding, starting in 2015. (WHN, 7/30)
