A celebration was held this week for the opening of the Washington County Crisis Stabilization Center in Hurricane.
HURRICANE, Washington County — A year and five months to the day ground was broken on an experiment to bridge the mental health gap locally, a celebration was held this week for the opening of the Washington County Crisis Stabilization Center in Hurricane.
In the same fashion how the State of the Union sees all of the state's officials in one chamber, this event gathered local police chiefs, council members, mayors, commissioners and the state legislator who represent the five counties of Southern Utah at 176 S. Regional Park Road on Tuesday. The center is designed to be for mental health what urgent care and emergency rooms are for physical health, officials said. It's also a new intake for law enforcement to use in place of jail or mental wards for people dealing with mental and substance abuse issues.
Sen. Evan Vickers, who represents Iron County, told St. George News that it couldn't be understated how crucial the center's opening is for the mental health needs of Southern Utah.
