Perrott questions UCS grant at Bennington County meeting
The Bennington County Regional Commission reviewed a $114 042 federal grant request from United Counseling Service UCS but offered no formal comments. Commissioner Richard V. Perrott challenged UCS staff about child abuse policy and staffing, nearly sparking an argument before the issue was set aside. The grant covers 70 percent of UCS staffing costs for 1977, aiding a major mental health program with a total annual budget near $961 000.
