First-of-its-kind treatment center for mothers opening in Everett

EVERETT — A new family services center in Everett will treat substance use disorder for pregnant women and new mothers.

Gov. Jay Inslee and Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers were on hand Tuesday to celebrate the opening of the center at 2601 Summit Ave., which has the capacity for about 150 patients per year.

It is operated by Evergreen Recovery Centers and allows women with substance use disorders or behavioral health issues to receive long-term treatment and temporary housing.

In 2022, there were 207 opioid-related overdose deaths in Snohomish County. According to state data, 60 of the deceased were women.
