What statewide interest does this project address as it relates to Chapter 216.052(1)?

 

Camillus saves the State the direct costs of housing, treatment, and job training, while creating employed, tax-paying, productive community members.  It also addresses the twin epidemics of substance abuse and HIV/AIDS, which are devastating our poor and minority communities.
