This comes a month after Bartlett Regional Hospitalʼs Rainforest Recovery Center shut its doors.
Gastineau Human Services officially opened the new Mount Juneau Counseling and Recovery building in Lemon Creek on Thursday.
Gastineau Human Services Executive Director Jonathan Swinton said four of those beds have already been occupied for a week, and the counseling center has been in operation for longer. The new residential facility was originally slated to open in January, but opened earlier to fill the gap left by Rainforest’s closure. Swinton said they are still trying to fill some staff positions.
Board President Forrest Clough said GHS has expanded rapidly to try to meet Juneau’s needs for more addiction and mental health treatment.
