What happened
Marshfield Clinic received a three-year federal grant totaling nearly $580,000 from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. This funding will support the expansion of mental health education and access across 17 counties in central, northern, and western Wisconsin. The services will specifically focus on Barron, Clark, Oneida, Price, Rusk, and Vilas counties, which face provider shortages in behavioral health services.

Why it matters
The grant provides significant funding to address barriers to behavioral health services in rural areas. The resources will be used for community and staff training, outreach, and establishing mental health navigator programs to connect youth and young adults with care.
