Funding Sources
A large portion of our budget for drug prevention comes in the form of grants from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission HHSC (Formerly DSHS). We also receive generous contributions from Midlothian ISD, Joshua ISD, the City of Midlothian, the United Way of West Ellis County, and Ellis County Juvenile Services. REACH also receives annual donations from the Midlothian Lion’s Club, as well as from REACH board members. Typically, 1-2 fundraising events are organized each year which bring in funding from community sponsors and event participants. School and employment drug testing services and all other (non-ATOD) prevention programs are fee-based services because they are not covered under our drug prevention grant contracts.
