§ 11813 County Drug Program Funding

• •Counties can spend their own money on programs to help people with alcohol or drug problems.
• •This is on top of any money the state already gives them for these programs.
• •The state won’t stop counties from adding extra money if they want to.

A county sees more people needing help with drug problems and wants to open a new treatment center.

The county can use its own money to pay for the new center, even if the state already gives them some money for drug programs.
