Oswego County Creates Mental Health Board Amid Restructuring
The Oswego County Legislature approved a local law to recreate a mental health board with nine named members serving temporarily while permanent members are chosen within three months. The move transfers the Association for Retarded Children and the Mental Health Association from the Health Department to the mental health program as the county works to meet state and federal guidelines by June 16 and restore a $1.5 million federal staffing grant.
