A new resource center has opened its doors in downtown Palmer, offering navigation assistance to various local and state resources for those experiencing homelessness or struggling with mental health or substance abuse disorders.
— a case management service organization located both in the Matanuska-Susistna Borough as well as Anchorage — that largely works with individuals diagnosed with mental illness.
“There’s always been homeless people in Palmer, it’s just that they’ve been a little bit more visible,” Odom said. “I don’t know if I would say that it’s necessarily increased, but there are definitely some individuals that are going to need more assistance than others.” Odom believes the current state of the housing market has contributed to the number of individuals in need of seeking services like this and hopes the new navigation center will prove to have an impact. During its first three weeks in operation, the center has served 10 people so far.
