RECOGNIZING ROCKINGHAM COUNTY VETERANS TREATMENT COURT
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commend the Rockingham County
government and Kevin Berger, chairman of the Rockingham County
Commissioners Board, in the planning and implementation of the
Rockingham County Veterans Treatment Court.
In October of last year, the Rockingham County government received a
$900,000 grant to help fund this novel endeavor. It was one out of five
counties within the United States to receive this level of funding for
such programs.
This money will go on to make a real difference in the lives of
veterans by offering evidence-based treatment for substance abuse and
mental health.
The process of obtaining this grant was very competitive, and I am
immensely pleased that Rockingham County has this opportunity to make a
real difference in the lives of our Nation's heroes.
