Young adults in Spokane, Washington can now get access to behavioral health services through Excelsior Wellness.
KREM 2 reports that the Pacific Northwest nonprofit expanded services for people ages 18 to 25. Its programs provide a combination of mental health and substance use treatment with housing education and career support.
The expansion addresses a gap in care. Serious mental health conditions and substance use disorders emerge between ages 18 and 25. Young adults leaving foster care or losing access to school based services may also struggle to find support.
