Resolution No.5641- Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Kingman and Lake Havasu City to Collaborate in the Utilization of a New SAMHSA Grant to Benefit the Veterans Treatment Court

 

 
SUMMARY:

The Kingman Veterans Treatment Court will collaborate with the Lake Havasu City Veterans Treatment Court to participate in the new SAMHSA grant beginning October 1, 2026. The Kingman Veterans Treatment Court is currently working in partnership with the Lake Havasu City Veterans Treatment Court through an existing grant that expires on September 30, 2026. The continuation of this partnership through the new SAMHSA grant will allow both courts to build upon the work and successes of the existing program while ensuring that veterans in our communities continue to receive the services and support they need. The grant will be used to reimburse the City of Kingman, Lake Havasu City and Bullhead City for expenses incurred in providing counseling and testing for veterans.  The total grant award is $295,429 for the first year and $283,429 for each of the next four years (subject to funding availability). 

 
FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a reimbursement grant resulting in no fiscal impact.
