Riley County officials approved the Community Corrections Department’s request to apply for Clay County opioid settlement funds on Monday. This funding will assist Community Corrections with the cost of random drug and alcohol testing in Clay County, which it oversees.

“In 2021, we started random drug testing and alcohol testing in Clay County so that way, our services were similar in both Clay and Riley County,” Megan Lewis, the Community Corrections director, said. “At the time, we had been a sub-recipient of the Kansas overdose Data to Action grant.”

Lewis said the county received a total of $19,820 from the Data to Action grant cost for one year.
