About us
Headquartered in Franklin, Tennessee, Acadia Healthcare was established in January 2005 to develop and operate a network of behavioral health facilities across the country. Acadia Healthcare’s mission is to create a world-class organization that sets the standard of excellence in the treatment of specialty behavioral health and addiction disorders. Acadia’s management style and philosophy is one of collaboration and flexibility as we create an energetic and team-oriented service delivery system. Our organization values input from employees, physicians, and all strategic alliances. As evidenced in our mission statement, Acadia Healthcare’s mission is to create behavioral health centers where people receive care that enables them to regain hope in a supportive, caring environment. We want Acadia to be synonymous with excellent care, phenomenal customer service and an unparalleled commitment to our patients, staff, physicians, and community. As a leading provider of behavioral healthcare services in the United States and Puerto Rico, Acadia Healthcare operates 253 treatment facilities across 39 states. Our network of treatment facilities offers multiple levels of care for various behavioral health and substance use disorders. At Acadia, our primary goal is to meet patients where they’re at in their treatment process. We do this by providing a multitude of levels of care, including detoxification, residential treatment for addiction, residential treatment for dual diagnosis, acute psychiatric inpatient hospitalization, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) services, and an array of outpatient programming options, ranging from partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) and intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) to traditional outpatient services. Our network of treatment facilities creates greater access to care, reduces the stigma associated with mental illness and addiction, and offers those in our communities a safe environment in which to receive the treatment they need.

On Independence Day, we at Acadia want to take a moment to thank those who defend the freedom we hold dear. Our protectors bravely and selflessly give so much to our country and communities, despite the toll it may take on their physical and behavioral health. This Fourth of July, we are proud to support all those who serve and recognize the impact their selflessness has on families and communities nationwide. Thank you.

Minorities face unique challenges when it comes to mental health, which often leads to a lack of treatment. According to SAMHSA's 2022 report, while 66% of White adults with a mental health diagnosis received care, only about 50% of Hispanic and Black adults did. During Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, we want to draw attention to this disparity and our collective efforts to address it. Learn about ways to champion mental health equity with this resource from NAMI.

Commemorating the end of slavery in the United States, Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of the resilience and perseverance of the Black American community. Importantly as we celebrate Freedom Day, we also reflect on the progress that must continue to create a society that is more equal and more free. Acadia is committed to doing our part to honor the lived experiences of the Black community and – through partnerships like The Jason Foundation, Inc. and NAMI – continues to work toward greater mental and behavioral health equity for all those in need.

In behavioral healthcare, it’s important to think of the unique needs of Veterans, one of our country’s most vulnerable populations. Today, on the 80th Anniversary of D-Day, we want to emphasize how important it is for Veterans to have access to clinically excellent behavioral healthcare services. Our Military & Family Support team supports and advocates for thousands of Veterans by connecting them with specialized, high-quality care. This recent article from Behavioral Health Business features Meridith Johnson, MBA, a member of that team: https://lnkd.in/et8j5BjM

Data shows that eating disorders have one of the highest mortality rates in the behavioral health space. That’s why, at Acadia Healthcare, we are committed to expanding access to specialized eating disorder treatments. These treatments leave a lasting impact – demonstrated by our “Every Bite A Battle” project that was brought to life by alumnae of Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center, one of our leading residential treatment centers. The project shined a light on the power that is found in healing from eating disorders through the telling of personal stories and sharing of captivating artwork that celebrated the victory these incredible women achieved. https://lnkd.in/gqb6Adkz

Research shows that LGBTQ+ individuals are 2.5 times more likely to suffer from anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders compared with heterosexual individuals. As it relates to accessing care, an alarming 8% of LGBTQ+ individuals, and nearly 27% of transgender individuals specifically, report being denied healthcare outright. At Acadia Healthcare, we are dedicated to providing compassionate and inclusive care for everyone. Our commitment to inclusivity means offering safe, supportive environments and programming that is tailored to the unique needs of the LGBTQ+ community. We strive to ensure that all individuals feel valued and respected while receiving the high-quality treatment they deserve.
