Wadena County Commissioners: Work session covers rehabilitation, repairs, rehashing ARPA funding
by Trinity Gruenberg
The Wadena County Commissioners held a work session on March 8.
Bell Hill Presentation
Bell Hill Director Tim Pavek shared the history of Bell Hill and wished to clear up some misconceptions. He was hired as director in May 2021.
Pavek has been giving this presentation to area businesses and clubs such as the Lions and Rotary to present a new look at the facility.
The property does have a fence but it is not a secure guarded facility. The people that are there, want to be there.
“Alcohol and drug addiction is a challenge,” said Pavek.
It’s not an incarcerated facility, center for drug sales or criminals relocating in Wadena County causing issues. There have been issues relocating clients to Wadena in the past and they want to get them in areas where they will be successful in their rehab progress.
Bell Hill is a privately owned, non-profit rehabilitation center. . .
