“We have a great team in place for this critical project and are very excited to see the construction begin,” said Ken Cooper, Larimer County Facilities Director. “From the earliest discussions, our goal has been to build a facility that’s welcoming, professional, and functional. We’re very thankful the facility will allow these needed services to be provided to our community for decades to come.”
Larimer County has contracted with SummitStone Health Partners along with UCHealth to provide clinical care and treatment at the new facility. The facility will serve Larimer County residents in need of urgent help for mental health and/or substance use disorders. The innovative design of the facility and the unique approach to care will allow individuals experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis to access multiple levels of care at one location.
The facility will be located at 2100 W. Trilby Road in Fort Collins. Completion of this project will offer access to critical mental health and substance use disorder crisis services to all residents and will bring almost 200 jobs to Larimer County. Construction is expected to be completed and the facility open to the public in 2023.
