Key to Adams County’s programming has been sustainability planning, specifically with Tranche 2 funding. With an emphasis on housing and mental/behavioral health as priorities, how to utilize funds for the long term was a part of the discussion from the beginning.
Funds utilized in Tranche 2 look beyond the initial crisis of the pandemic and move more into resiliency. The goal is now equitable recovery and long-term stability for residents of the county within the identified areas of need.
