Juneau Alliance for Mental Health Inc., or JAMHI, will have a new facility thanks to $870,000 that Sen. Lisa Murkowski earmarked for the project in the federal omnibus spending bill.
The organization says the project will help them serve more youth amid a growing mental health crisis that’s led to a waitlist for services.
“If you are asking for services, you’re not asking for services a week, three weeks, a month down the road. You want services now,” Gearhart said. “So once you’re ready to do that, you want to be able to strike while the iron is hot.”
