Explanation - $2,000,000 million in state special revenue and the accompanying federal match are appropriated to add peer supports as a Medicaid service for adults with substance use disorders and/or a mental illness at Addictive and Mental Disorders Division (AMDD). In addition, $500,000 is appropriated to AMDD to fund Mobile Crisis Unit grants.

This amendment appropriates $2,500,000 in state special revenue funds from the Medical Marijuana state special revenue account to new state special accounts. The transfer is contingent upon a companion bill authorizing and transferring the funds.
