Strategic Plan
Our Strategic Plan 2025 - 2028

Grow and Develop Core Services
Elwyn’s commitment to growing and developing our services is seen in the recent expansion of adult behavioral health services by acquiring Fellowship Health Resources which has increased our service population by 7,500 individuals and extended our geographical footprint up and down the East Coast. Also, the Children’s Residential Treatment Facility will allow us to double the number of children we can support as part of their continuum of care beyond their acute needs.
