Garrett’s Space is expanding its transformative mental health programs for young adults, fueled by support from the 2025 Washtenaw County Community Mental Health and Public Safety Preservation Millage. This funding empowers the nonprofit to enhance its services and address a growing crisis among young people.

In Michigan, suicide is a leading cause of death for individuals ages 15 to 34. Garrett’s Space confronts this issue through free virtual support groups and wellness programming that foster connection and community. With renewed millage funding, the organization will increase in-person wellness activities and support groups while developing day programming at its upcoming residential campus.

“We are immensely grateful to Washtenaw County and its voters,” says Scott Halpert, president and co-founder of Garrett’s Space. “This funding allows us to provide crucial resources to more young adults and expand behavioral health services in our community.”

Renewed for an eight-year term in November 2024, the millage will sustain essential behavioral health services through 2034. The overwhelming voter support demonstrates a collective commitment to addressing mental health challenges and creating a brighter future for young adults in need.
