ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

In 2022, The City of Lewisville entered into an agreement with Denton County MHMR Center for mental health services. Six months into the agreement, the funded position became vacant and was never filled by Denton County MHMR. The agreement expired with just over $51,000 remaining. For FY24-25, the CDBG Advisory Committee recommended $20,000 of Social Service Agency Funds be allocated to a nonprofit organization. This organization determined they would not be able to successfully run their program with that amount of funding and declined the award. These funds can be merged to fund an impactful mental health program for Lewisville residents. Cumberland Youth & Family Services provided a proposal to City staff to expand their Community Counseling program to offer mental health services in-person at a location within Lewisville to uninsured and underinsured Lewisville residents to fill the current gap in available mental health programs.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the resolution as set forth in the caption above.
