The FY2024 report lists a new program named LEAD at 6,881.59 funded and expended (pp2 to 3). It names the recipient as LEAD, the problem as addiction prevention and the description as education. It gives the funding date and the launch date as 04/17/2024, the primary category as Harm Reduction and Overdose Prevention and the Schedule B strategy as Prevent Misuse of Opioids. Its one indicator is a single training or education session. The account paid three items in the period. Dave & Buster's of New Jersey received 6,117.60 for the LEAD Trip on purchase order 24-00751, check 1928, on 04/29/2024. First Student received 400.00 for buses for the LEAD Trip 2024 on purchase order 24-00752, check 1931, on 05/13/2024, after check 1929 for 680.50 was voided. L.E.A.D. received 363.99 for the L.E.A.D. Summit 2024 on purchase order 24-00226, check 1920, on 02/26/2024. The three payments make the certified figure to the cent. Both trip orders were first encumbered on 04/17/2024, the date the report gives for funding and launch. Exhibit E's harm reduction uses are naloxone, overdose education, syringe services and related care. None of the three payments is one of them, no listed use covers an arcade outing, and no overdose program the spending serves is documented.
