St. Paul, MN – Representative Susan Akland, a nurse by trade, authored HF2713 and HF2714 to provide funding and improvements to the St. Peter Regional Treatment Center.
“I know how important our mental health treatment centers are and the value they add to communities,” Akland said. “The funding provided in this legislation would improve facilities for patients and healthcare workers.”
HF2713 and HF2714 would appropriate $17,800,000 for the treatment center. The money would be available thanks to the $7.7 billion surplus in the state. The bills were both referred to the Capitol Investment Committee. More information on the legislation can be found here.
