Every child deserves to grow up at home, surrounded by their family, attending their school, and connected to their community, rather than living in an institution because the system failed them,” said Governor Joe Lombardo. “Over the past two years, my administration has reduced institutional placements by more than half as part of our commitment under the DOJ Agreement to deliver meaningful, community-based mental health care for Nevada's children. This is more than a talking point. More kids are getting the care they need at home - where they belong. It is a promise made and a promise kept, and we are just getting started.
