In 1970, a small group of concerned Bucks County community leaders explored the possibility of establishing a comprehensive, residential rehabilitation program for adolescent substance abusers. Their backgrounds in the fields of law enforcement, drug enforcement, legal counsel, corrections and special education made these individuals (John D. Case, William H. Eastburn, William D. Ford, John L. Hopson and Earl W. McWilliams, PhD.) aware of the need for such a program. The initial funding of $5,000 was made available through a grant from the Bucks County Bar Association.
After months of planning, research and discussion, TODAY, Inc. was born. Intended to be an alternative to incarceration, the organization would be a private, free-standing, non-profit agency. One which would be accessible to all, regardless of economic, ethnic or religious backgrounds.
Since its opening on March 1, 1971, TODAY, Inc. has provided a highly successful, comprehensive, continuum of behavioral health services. Our formal treatment services have helped over 20,000 young people and their families.
Under the TODAY, Inc. umbrella, a broad array of evidence-based prevention services have also been implemented in the treatment of substance use and co-occuring disorders. With their focus on identifying risk and protective factors, these programs have helped to educate and support communities throughout the greater Delaware Valley region.
