Some days, progress doesn’t roar.
It whispers in small steps, quiet thoughts, and showing up when it’s hard.
📖 A journal entry.
🕊 A breath taken.
☕ A moment of stillness.
These are victories too.

At Polara Health, we believe resilience isn’t always loud—it’s often deeply personal.

So wherever you are in your journey: keep going. You’re doing better than you think. 💚

JEBCO Construction Completes Two Major Polara Health Facilities

JEBCO Construction Companies, LLC, has completed two new Prescott healthcare facilities for Polara Health: the Center for Recovery at 1060 Sandretto Drive and the Integrated Care Clinic at 726 Gail Gardner Way. These new facilities are designed to enhance the accessibility, integration and effectiveness of behavioral health services in Yavapai County.
The Center for Recovery will provide inpatient and outpatient support to individuals navigating substance use and mental health challenges, while the Integrated Care Clinic serves as a centralized hub offering primary care, psychiatry and therapeutic adult services under one roof.

“Polara and JEBCO have collaborated on many projects over the years, and I’m always impressed with JEBCO’s attention to detail, willingness to adapt as circumstances change, and their professionalism,” said Polara Health Director of Facilities Paul Fromholtz. “Together, we have created spaces that restore lives, inspire hope and make a lasting impact on the community.”

Polara Health, a provider of integrated behavioral health services since 1966, continues its mission to promote mental wellness for all through these new facilities.

“JEBCO has been a long-standing partner as our organization has grown to meet the needs of our community,” said Polara Health CEO Tamara Player. “Their expertise and tireless efforts ensured that every corner of our facilities align with our mission and values.”

With more than 25 years of commercial construction experience, JEBCO Construction Companies, LLC has built a reputation across Arizona for integrity, excellence and community commitment. Company officials say they worked hand in hand with the Polara Health leadership team, ensuring timely project delivery and exceptional craftsmanship tailored to the specific needs of behavioral health services.

“We’re honored to partner with an organization like Polara Health that’s doing such vital work in the region,” said JEBCO Construction Companies owner Jeb Johnson. “Our team is proud to contribute to their mission by creating spaces that support healing, dignity and care. This collaboration was more than a construction project – it was a shared investment in the well-being of our community.”

Polara Health representatives say these newly completed projects reflect a growing recognition of the importance of mental health infrastructure in rural and suburban communities. The Integrated Care Clinic on Gail Gardner Way has been serving patients since June 2024. The Center for Recovery on Sandretto Drive is expected to be open in late summer.
