GC)--Ground officially was broken for the new Robert M. Greer Center in Enid on Friday afternoon. A number of state and other leaders were present. Greer Center is the only privately operated, state-owned treatment facility in Oklahoma that exclusively serves adults who are dually diagnosed as having intellectual disability as well as mental illness. Though it’s intended to be a short-term treatment program to stabilize and reintegrate clients, the Greer Center also supports those who require longer-term care and treatment when needed. The facility opened in 1989 on the campus of the former Northern Oklahoma Resource Center of Enid. In 2019, DHS confirmed it had set aside $16million for the Greer Center, and a bill passed in May 2020 allotted $1 million for debt service for the construction project, which will replace the buildings located in the center that were built in the 1980s.
