I rise to commend the Rockingham County government and Kevin Berger, chairman of the Rockingham County Commissioners Board, in the planning and implementation of the Rockingham County Veterans Treatment Court. In October of last year, the Rockingham County government received a $900,000 grant to help fund this novel endeavor. It was one out of five counties within the United States to receive this level of funding for such programs. This money will go on to make a real difference in the lives of veterans by offering evidence-based treatment for substance abuse and mental health. The process of obtaining this grant was very competitive, and I am immensely pleased that Rockingham County has this opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our Nation's heroes.
