PROJECT TURNABOUT ANNOUNCES GRAND OPENING EVENT FOR WILLMAR CAMPUS
WILLMAR, MINN. - NOVEMBER 2, 2021 -- Project Turnabout Addiction Recovery Centers announces the grand opening event for its new center located at 309 7th Street NW in Willmar, Minnesota. The event will take place on November 10th, 2021. The community is welcome from 3PM – 7PM where there will be guided tours and refreshments.
The new building offers a 16-bed women’s residential inpatient care facility, outpatient center and staff offices. The opening of the new center will join other Project Turnabout buildings at the location to complete a block-wide area that now becomes the Project Turnabout Willmar Campus. Other buildings include Cheri’s Place, a sober living home; The Alcove meditation space refurbished from the historic “Gabbert House” previously existing on the block; and a townhome complex providing housing for women pursuing higher education or vocational training.
Marti Paulson, Project Turnabout Executive Director/CEO, talked about the significance of this opportunity for women to grow in recovery following high intensity residential treatment. “This is a celebration of progress toward eliminating the gap in the continuum of care for women with substance use disorders in Minnesota.” She credits the community for supporting Project Turnabout in taking on the challenge, stating that the nonprofit organization’s initial investment in this block happened in 2014 with the purchase of Cheri’s Place. “We’ve grown from there,” Paulson said, “because we saw that women need help in the space between high intensity treatment and full independence in their life of recovery. We’re very grateful for the community’s interest and support in this vision.”
Board President, Suzanne Hilgert added, “the Project Turnabout Board is pleased to be celebrating the opening of this new center for addiction recovery. This new building illustrates our dedication to improving access to those who are suffering with this challenge. It also exemplifies our vision to the entire range of treatment that individuals need. This campus will be a template of progress in addiction recovery services. We are so pleased to have this campus in Willmar, which has been on the forefront of this journey for many years. Thank you to all our partners and individuals who have contributed to this much needed project.
