ADMHS a Little Less in the Red

Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Services (ADMHS) director Alice Gleghorn told the Board of Supervisors her department’s liabilities to the state have dropped from $9.5 million in late 2013 to $7.5 million as of last month, in part because settlements with the state were finalized after a lengthy appeals process. Gleghorn said this is an issue common in other counties as state audit interpretations and procedures are known to change.
