Budget cuts threaten Bert Nash Hospital funding
Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center CEO David Johnson warns of more state funding cuts. The center serves 5,600 Douglas County residents and has already lost over 1.1 million in funding across years, with a 2010 cut of 565,000 prompting program and housing assistance reductions and staff downsizing. Governor Brownback proposes 15.2 million in statewide cuts to CMHCs, which Johnson says could cost Bert Nash about 372,000 more. Kansas CMHCs have shed roughly 33.5 million since 2008, risking hospital transfers and outreach losses.
