Detox faces sobering budget cuts (Massachusetts)
Story in the Daily News Tribune - "A Framingham detoxification program could be in danger of closing if acting Gov. Jane Swift slashes $8 million in funding for drug treatment from the state's budget, advocates warned yesterday. Swift is getting ready to make $200 million in emergency budget cuts next week, and treatment program advocates fear that money for detoxification services is high on her list of potential cuts. Elizabeth Funk, president and CEO of Natick-based Mental Health and Substance Abuse Corporations of Massachusetts, said Swift is weighing an 18 percent cut to a $51.4 million detoxification program run by the Division of Medical Assistance."
