PHOENIX - Attorney General Kris Mayes today announced a $6 million grant program to support Tribal Nations impacted by fraudulent sober living home practices. This initiative, funded through the Anti-Racketeering Revolving Fund, will provide assistance to communities affected by behavioral healthcare fraud involving Arizona's Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS).

"Every community deserves care they can trust," said Attorney General Mayes. "This funding will help Tribal Nations provide much-needed support for individuals impacted by the fraudulent sober living home scandal. And my office will continue to pursue accountability for those responsible for sober living home fraud."

The Sober Living Home Support Program offers grants of up to $500,000 for Tribal Nations to provide compensation, remediation, and supportive housing for those affected. This funding is designed to alleviate economic loss and support recovery, reinforcing Attorney General Mayes' commitment to remedying the harm caused by fraudulent practices targeting Arizona's vulnerable communities.
