(Bob Hague, Wisconsin Radio Network) Mental health aid for underprivileged Wisconsinites is on the way.

$4.7 million from the Health Resources and Services Administration will expand mental health services at eight community health centers statewide next year. A release says the funds are meant for services for those who are uninsured, underinsured or enrolled in Medicaid.

The money distributed through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will also help expand access to care and support combating the opioid crisis in the U.S.
