Painful budget cuts imperil Kansas corrections programs
Kansas Corrections Secretary Roger Werholtz testified that about 23.5 million dollars in cuts are shrinking custody and rehabilitation efforts. He warned the state is less safe as substance abuse and mental health treatment slots are eliminated, jeopardizing parole success and long term savings. The programs cut include 220 of 284 substance abuse slots and 100 of 180 sex offender slots, plus the mental health transition program.
