PITTSBURG, Kan. — In late May, what was to be just an annual review of the Crawford County Mental Health Center turned into a conversation about a need for more financial transparency within the county’s departments. At their meeting on May 21, commissioners heard from the center’s director Michael Ehling as he presented and reviewed for the commission the activities of the Mental Health Center. In his initial presentation, Ehling reviewed a wide range of topics from how the center had handled COVID-19 to what services they provided, even going on to discuss how grants and fundraising were going for the future Addiction Treatment Center the organization is currently in the process of making a reality.
