Interim Inc. has added a second crisis residential facility in Monterey — Manzanita Monterey — and we celebrated the Grand Opening on July 19th.
Manzanita Monterey is a short-term crisis residential treatment facility that specializes in the stabilization of adults experiencing a mental health crisis. It now occupies the former Bridge House facility in Monterey. Interim now has 28 crisis residential treatment beds at two facilities, one in Salinas and one in Monterey.
Over 100 people attended. Monterey Mayor Clyde Roberson, Monterey County Supervisor Mary Adams, Amie Miller, Director of Monterey County Behavioral Health, Mel Mason, Executive Director of the Village Project, and Mario Ramirez, an Interim employee/programs graduate, all spoke. Carl Miller, Interim Board President, emceed.
Mayor Roberson also presented a proclamation recognizing July as Minority Mental Health Awareness Month.
Audience members were moved by Mario Ramirez’s story of recovery.
Mel Mason, former Interim crisis residential Program Director, reminisced on his time at Interim, remarking that, among many benefits, Interim had given him ‘the freedom to grow” in his early career.
Following the ribbon cutting ceremony, attendees were treated to refreshments, facility tours, and a small client art show.
THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND SUPPORTERS! WE COULDN’T DO IT WITHOUT YOU!
