The funding was made available as part of the $90 million in federal American Rescue Plan Act funds awarded by the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and will be primarily used to purchase land to build a behavioral health and crisis campus.

The remaining funds will be used to purchase an Advanced Life Support transport vehicle for Morrow County, which will mainly be used to transport behavioral health patients to the facilities that will best be able to treat them, the report said.
