PGS UpdatesTreatment Specialist Position Update:

Drafting Policy Option Package to the legislature for authority to hire Position –Program Analyst to provide technical assistance and program and policy development.

Position that we had authority for (Compliance Specialist) was transferred to License and Regulation Unit due to classification and main function.

Position is budgeted for in current budget and future budgets, so this providers us leverage in moving forward through the OHA process to reach the legislature. No funding requested- always looks good.

Will keep you posted. Legislative session begin January 1, 2017.
