In March 2020, the Treasurer's Office issued $50 million in bonds on behalf of the Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) and the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (MHAS). The Mental Health 2020A issuance will fund capital investments that further the Department of Developmental Disabilities services and supports for Ohioans with developmental disabilities by investing in community housing options and by maintaining Ohio’s eight developmental centers. The Community Capital Assistance program, available in all 88 counties, provides for the purchase, renovation, and construction of housing for Ohioans with developmental disabilities. Funding from the issuance will also provide much needed capital projects for our developmental centers including underground electrical replacement, restroom renovations, roof replacements, and HVAC system projects. These bonds also funded various capital projects under the direction of the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services that address the need for improved infrastructure for the state psychiatric hospitals and treatment and recovery facility needs for non-profit community providers. The projects include a new behavioral health hospital in Columbus, renovations at facilities in Massillon and Toledo, as well as capital improvements to community facilities across the state of Ohio.
