艾维拨款28万美元支持州监狱戒毒治疗
阿拉巴马州州长凯·艾维10月16日宣布，向州惩教署拨款280,806美元，用于资助州监狱内的药物滥用治疗项目，帮助在押人员戒除毒瘾。州长办公室在Montgomery发布的新闻稿中说，毒瘾往往是在押人员入狱的原因之一，该项目旨在通过治疗降低再犯风险。
这笔拨款经阿拉巴马州经济发展与社区事务部等渠道公布，是艾维政府近期一系列拨款之一。此前，州长还宣布阿拉巴马州交通部已将塔斯卡卢萨市伍尔西·芬内尔大桥更换工程合同授予出价最低的斯科特桥梁公司，合同金额1.67亿美元，新桥为六车道并设步行与自行车共用道，预计2027年初开工。
州政府表示，戒毒治疗拨款将直接用于监狱内的治疗服务。相关项目的具体执行与成效，将由惩教署按州政府拨款程序推进。
Ivey Awards $280,806 Grant for Substance Abuse Treatment in Alabama Prisons
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey announced on October 16 a grant of $280,806 to the Alabama Department of Corrections to fund a substance abuse treatment program in state prisons, aimed at helping prisoners end drug addictions. In a press release issued in Montgomery, the governor's office said addiction often contributes to incarceration, and the program is intended to reduce reoffending through treatment.
The award was reported through state economic and community affairs channels and is one of a series of recent grants by the Ivey administration. Earlier, the governor announced that the Alabama Department of Transportation had awarded a $167 million contract to Scott Bridge Company, the lowest bidder, to replace Tuscaloosa's Woolsey Finnell Bridge with a modern six-lane bridge with a shared-use path for pedestrians and bicyclists, with construction expected to begin in early 2027.
The state said the substance abuse grant will go directly to treatment services inside prisons, with implementation carried out by the Department of Corrections under state grant procedures.
