The following article contains information from two Humboldt County Board of Supervisors meetings due to the holiday and printing deadlines.
September 8 meeting
The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors met on Tuesday, Sept. 8 due to the Labor Day holiday.
During the meeting, Alison Hauser, Crisis Liaison with Rolling Hills Community Services Region, presented her report to wrap up the first fiscal year of her grant.
Hauser reported that she served 189 people in Humboldt and Pocahontas counties.
She explained that she uses what is called the intercept model which means they initially receive referrals from anyone, not just law enforcement, to assist people who may be in crisis.
The next level is working with law enforcement, which does provide about 70% of her referrals.
The third level is through the jails and helping with the initial appearance at the courthouse.
