Nexus Family Healing is a nonprofit provider of mental health and family support for children, young people, and caregivers. Its continuum includes foster care, outpatient and community mental health services, residential treatment, and family stabilization.

The care model addresses behavioral health, trauma, family stability, and placement needs across residential and community settings, positioning Nexus within nonprofit child and family services rather than as a standalone residential-care operator. Programs also intersect with foster care, schools, child welfare, and juvenile justice systems.
