Casa Mesita on track to regain active status

The Casa Mesita Group Home will be turning on the lights again and Los Alamos Family Council is also getting some needed help for the remainder of the year from a statewide funding source.

Officials from ValueOptions New Mexico presented a $100,000 check to Casa Mesita to support the organizations campaign to resume operations, perhaps as early as this summer.

Also on Wednesday, A $9,500 check went to Los Alamos Family Council.

The money came from special fund governed by ValueOptions, a New Mexico organization that manages the contract for the state’s behavioral health network. Part of the annual budget, $3.1 million this year, was set aside for a round of reinvestment at this time in the budget cycle. Another $7.2 million was added to the fund through management efficiencies and state efforts to increase enrollment, according to information provided by ValueOptions.

“ValueOptions gave $100,000 from its reinvestment fund to bring Casa Mesita’s programs back up,” said Patsy Romero, ValueOptions regional director this week during a visit to Los Alamos.
