Improving Public Safety with La Red’s Rural Re-Entry Program Amount: $1,000,000 Description: La Red Health Center’s program addresses recidivism by offering integrated medical and behavioral health services for individuals reentering the community from incarceration.
I will seek $1,000,000 in federal Community Project Funding for La Red Health Center's Rural Re-Entry Program to provide integrated medical and behavioral health services for people reentering the community from incarceration.
Occurrences
Evidence
The official site identifies Sarah McBride as Delaware's sole U.S. House member and lists Services > Community Project Funding Disclosures > Funding Requests FY26 and Funding Requests FY27.
Public Law 119-75 is the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026. Section 4 says the explanatory statement printed in the House section of the Congressional Record on or about January 21, 2026 has the same effect for allocation and implementation of divisions A through D as a joint explanatory statement.
The Congressional Record table states it lists congressional earmarks contained in H.R. 7148 for Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies under Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending.
The Delaware HHS entries shown include Delaware Health Empowerment Coalition for primary care clinics, Saint Francis Hospital for an outpatient pharmacy, The Arc of Delaware for accessibility renovations, and The Children’s Advocacy Center of Delaware for security. The table text search returned no match for La Red, La Red Health, Rural Re-Entry, or Re-Entry.
The same official table lists McBride-requested Delaware projects in other accounts, including Wilmington Riverwalk Extension Shared-Use Path, Lewes-Georgetown Highway pedestrian bridge, Port Wilmington Infrastructure Improvement and Revitalization, Town of Magnolia Water Storage Tower, Delaware Family Justice Centers, and Delaware Skills Center acquisition and renovations.
Assessments
The relevant FY2026 enacted appropriations materials and Labor-HHS community project funding table do not include a $1,000,000 item for La Red Health Center's Rural Re-Entry Program. The record shows McBride secured or originated other Delaware community project funding items, but not this promised project. The evidence also does not establish a serious specific attempt for this La Red request, so the effort badge is not warranted.
