The FY2026 report lists one new program, PREVENTION / AWARENESS, funded and spent at 18,591.16 between 07/01/2025 and 06/30/2026 (pp4 to 6). It names Middle Township as the only recipient and Police Administration as the officials who decided the spending (pp2 and 4). It describes open discussions at events and during LEAD programs and reports 1,000 people served. It files the program under Primary Prevention, Education, and Training, adds Harm Reduction and Overdose Prevention as a second category, and names three Schedule B strategies, Prevent Misuse of Opioids, Prevent Overdose Deaths and Other Harms (Harm Reduction) and First Responders. The books show five payments. Foremost Promotions, Community Event Supplies, purchase order 25-01883, check 88888 for 2,228.39 on 09/26/2025. Sign A Rama, a pop up tent and table cloth, purchase order 25-01961, check 88934 for 1,920.83 the same day. Innocorp, Ltd., Fatal Vision event supplies, purchase order 25-02435, check 89399 for 7,882.00 on 12/02/2025. Foremost Promotions, Community Engagment Supplies, purchase order 26-01187, check 90596 for 2,833.19 and 3,726.75 on 06/17/2026. The five make the certified figure to the cent, and the program's funding and launch date, 09/26/2025, is the date of the first two checks. Exhibit E's harm reduction uses center on naloxone, overdose education and syringe services, and its First Responders category adds fentanyl education and wellness services for responders. None of the five payments is for naloxone, overdose response, or responder training or wellness. Prevention education can be a listed use, but the record documents only supplies, with no prevention curriculum, no record of the discussions or the materials handed out, and nothing behind the 1,000 people served. From 12/2021 to 12/2024 the Township paid Foremost Promotions 15,347.31 for giveaways and event items from its own budget lines, before the settlement accounts began paying the vendor in 09/2025.
