Yesterday, Ohioans approved 7 out of 9 behavioral health levies across the state of Ohio. It is important to note that local levy dollars fund 1/3 of all community based alcohol, drug addiction and mental health services in Ohio. The Ohio Association of County Behavioral Health Authorities gives KUDOS to all who ran levies, and congratulates the 7 counties that were able to pass theirs. The results are as follows:
