The Village at the WestCare Nevada Women and Children’s Campus will provide cottages for 87 women and children. A new facility is coming to North Las Vegas to assist women battling drug addiction and give them housing throughout the rehabilitation process. The Village is a 63,623-square-foot, 84-unit facility that will offer housing, case management, educational classes and other support for women in the Las Vegas Valley who may need assistance. The facility will be operated by WestCare Nevada, a branch of a national nonprofit agency that provides mental health and rehabilitation services to those in need.
“There’s not one solution to this problem,” said Leo Magridichian, vice president of WestCare Nevada. “But if we all work together, then we can actually make a dent and potentially solve some of the issues and assist most of our most vulnerable people in this community.”
WestCare has been working for more than 10 years to help turn The Village into a reality, Magridichian said. WestCare already operates its Women & Children’s Campus, which has 30 beds for transitional living and where clients can stay for up to 90 days.
