The Crisis and Recovery Center project will help people get mental health care in their community. It will offer a welcoming place for mental health assessment, support and short-term residential treatment.
The project is in the northeast portion of the parking lot at the
Northern Service Center in West St. Paul. The site is near public transit, government services, shopping, community support programs, green space and other amenities that have been identified as important to people who are accessing mental health services.
