Advocacy group urges Oklahoma County commissioners to reallocate $50m ARPA funds from a jail site's linked behavioral health center to separate community mental health facilities.
Advocacy group, People's Council for Justice Reform, urges Oklahoma County commissioners to reallocate $50m ARPA funds from a jail site's linked behavioral health center to separate community mental health facilities. The group argues that the current plan criminalizes mental health and should be separated from the jail. Commissioners face potential loss of ARPA funds from December if a site is not approved.
