MENOMONIE (WQOW) - The secretary-designee of the Wisconsin Department of Health, Karen Timberlake, was in Menomonie Friday to talk about how the state budget could help Wisconsinites access substance treatment services in the state.
Timberlake spoke with the director of Arbor Place Residential and Treatment Facility about a $6.5 million provision in the proposed state budget that would, over two years, cover the cost of residential stays for people with Medicaid who need substance use disorder treatment.
When speaking with Arbor Place employees, Timberlake said they told her there is a limited window when people reach out to them to connect them with treatment while they are motivated to receive it. And sometimes when people struggle to pay for the room and board at a center, they give up on getting help.

Northland College
Spring Break Travel
In general, the College discourages students, faculty, and staff from traveling during spring break (April 24 – May 2). Staying on campus or close to Ashland will help to limit transmission of the COVID-19 virus, increasing the chances that our community can stay safe and successfully complete the academic year.
If you must travel, students should complete a COVID-19 travel request if heading beyond a 40-mile radius of Ashland. Each request is evaluated by a team for risk assessment and appropriate follow-up is communicated to each student. It is crucial that students submit travel requests in advance, so that required protocols can be determined and communicated. Submitting a travel request does not mean travel has been approved. Self-quarantine, quarantine, or isolation periods may interfere with May Term courses scheduled to start May 3. Not all courses may be able to accommodate physical absences from classes.
