County okays drug center funds
After deciding that the Headquarters, Inc., court diversion program deserves continued funding, the Douglas County Court approved the program's 1978 budget of $7,954.
The budget now goes to the Governor's Council on Criminal Administration for final approval. If approved, the Council will pay $394 million and the Governor will pay $393 and Douglas County will pay $4,374.
The program is an alternative to jail or a fine for minor drug offenders.
Doug McEnery, director of the program, said the number of minor drug cases referred to the center by the courts had dropped to 30 in the past 18 months. The program previously had been handling up to 100 cases a year.

Before the vote on funding, Peter Whitenthe, county commissioner chairman, wrote to state senator Bill Brown asking for his approval.
TO SAVE MONEY and to make the center perform better, McEmery said that he planned to reduce the center's part-time work force to two full-time employees.

He said he also had submitted a proposal to the county juvenile court offering them $10,000 for each case.
"THEIS WOULD expand the number people using the service by as many as 50 people a year," he said, "and it would offer a needed service for these people."
Wilenight said that 1978 would be the last year that the county would receive matched funding for the program from state and federal sources. If the program does not become a better service for more people, he said, it will not be funded solely by the county in 1979.
JRP students reportedly had watched the V until noon. When they returned at 12:30 P.M., students were discharged.
The commission decided to fund the program for 1978 after McEney submitted a proposal.
