CATALINA FOOTHILLS, Ariz. — The COMPACT Act of 2020, which went into effect in January 2003, allows more veterans to gain additional mental health treatment .

Montare's facility isn't limited to veteran care, but they specialize in this area due to a combination of keeping residency numbers limited to ten and providing a palette of treatment modalities in addition to the standard medication and therapy. But most importantly, Executive Director Joddi Jacobsen mentions the level of individualistic care that the facility is able to provide.

"Most programs are what you call dual-diagnosis," says Amber Brown, a case manager at Montare."but there are very few primary mental health programs, even nationwide." Fortunately, he chose the latter. This led him to Montare Behavioral Health’s treatment center and onto the road to recovery.
