A new kind of treatment center for children with intellectual, developmental, and mental health challenges is coming to central Minnesota next year.

Grafton Integrated Health Network submitted a proposal and was contracted by the Minnesota Department of Human Services to run a 30-bed psychiatric residential treatment facility (PRTF) in Cold Spring.
