Title

Approval of Amendment No. 2 to MOA21-934 with Los Alamos Public Schools for the Purpose of Utilizing Opioid Settlement Funds to Expand Prevention Services within the Los Alamos Public Schools

Recommended Action

I move that Council approve MOA21-934-A2 entered into by and between the Incorporated County of Los Alamos and the Los Alamos Public Schools (LAPS) for prevention services.

County Manager's Recommendation

The County Manager recommends that Council approve the Memorandum of Agreement Amendment No.2 (Attachment A) as presented.

Body

On March 9, 2024, County Council approved MOA21-934.

On September 24, 2024, County Council approved utilization of Opioid Settlement funds to expand Prevention Specialist positions by an additional $75,000.00 per year to LAPS.

 

The MOA was developed initially back in July 2015 and this agreement for services was the result of conversations between LAPS and the County regarding the needs of our high-school age population.  It is an ongoing effort to enhance the level of social services available within the County for members of this population. 

 

This agreement also serves as an in-kind match for the LDWI Grant, as this MOA also covers programs that are focused on substance abuse within LAPS.
