LYNNWOOD — It’s been nearly five years since Lynnwood city officials approved a last-minute pivot to allot space in the design of the city’s new jail for a crisis care facility.

After a series of challenges, from funding to securing a provider, Lynnwood community members cut the ribbon on the Lynnwood Crisis Care Center on Monday.

The facility will serve as an alternative to an emergency room or jail for someone who is experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis.

“This center stands as a testament to what we accomplish when community public safety partners work together with healthcare towards a common goal,” said Claudia D’Allegri, chief behavioral health officer for Sea Mar Community Health Centers, the facility’s provider. “Today, we are creating a promise, a promise of a place of dignity, healing and hope.”
