Pipeline: Hazelden Betty Ford's $40M campus upgrade; addiction Treatment Services expand in multiple states. This is an exclusive BHB+ story. Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation unveils $40M campus plans. Legacy nonprofit addiction treatment provider Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation revealed plans for a $40 million campus update in Rancho Mirage, California, adding a brand-new 60-bed residential facility, that will open in late 2027. The facility will add the space necessary to support integrated care for patients with co-occurring mental health and addiction diagnoses. Following construction of its new residential pavilion, Hazelden Betty Ford will also renovate the existing residential halls on the same campus as well as dining facilities in a community center and fitness and wellness areas. Site preparation and the new entrance are slated for completion by the end of 2026 and renovations of its existing residential halls and community center spaces are set to be completed in early 2029. Porch Light Health, Comprehensive Behavioral Health Center team up to expand OUD treatment in Colorado. Denver-based outpatient substance use disorder (SUD) care provider Porch Light Health and its subsidiary company, Comprehensive Behavioral Health Center (CBHC), a licensed opioid treatment program and medication management provider, recently opened two new CBHC-led medication units. One is embedded within Porch Light Health's existing clinic in Fort Collins, and the other is embedded in a Porch Light Health clinic in Greeley, Colorado. Porch Light Health acquired CBHC in May 2025 as a "strategic partnership" move to broaden access to MAT like methadone. Porch Light also has clinic locations in New Mexico, but the company has yet to expand CBHC's operations there as well. Nonprofit New Creation Behavioral Healthcare to operate 89-bed facility in San Diego County. Officials with the County of San Diego announced earlier this month that a Southern California nonprofit addiction treatment provider, New Creation Behavioral Healthcare Foundation, will operate a new 73-bed residential treatnment SUD treatment facility. It will also have 16 additional beds for recuperative care to help support care while individuals transition back into their communities, for a total of 89 beds. The $29 million location will open this fall, but a specific date was not noted. The treatment center will be in National City, California and is the first of its kind in San Diego County to integrate SUD treatment and recuperative care for adults in the same facility. New Creation Behavioral Healthcare is headquartered in Ontario, California, and operates locations in Orange County and San Bernardino County. Horizon Treatment Services to build 69-bed recovery center in Bay Area. Nonprofit Horizon Treatment Services is continuing forward with plans to build a 69-bed recovery center in Burlingame, California, just south of San Francisco. The SUD treatment provider has operated locations across the Bay Area and Northern California since 1976. Its plans for the new recovery center were hanging in limbo as the provider waited on approval from the California Department of Health Care Services related to state funding and approval from the local San Mateo County Board of Supervisors for a $2.5 million match. Horizon also received a $25.5 million state Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program grant to fund the project. AllHealth Network to soon break ground on new Colorado location. Denver-based behavioral health provider AllHealth Network will soon break ground on a project in Centennial, Colorado to develop a new Crisis and Recovery Center as an alternative to emergency rooms and jails for individuals in behavioral health crisis. New construction is set to begin in October and once finished, it is meant to replace AllHealth's existing location in downtown Littleton, Colorado. However, in the interim, the Littleton location will continue operations through the end of 2027. The new construction site in Centennial will expand the capacity of its operations and provide services including 23-hour observation, MAT and care coordination, as well as therapy and crisis care supports.

Now in its seventh year, the ranking is designed to help patients and families navigate treatment options by identifying facilities based on professional reputation, credentials and accreditations, care services and patient reviews. Residential addiction treatment centers provide critical, around-the-clock care for individuals facing substance use disorders, trauma and complex mental health challenges. By evaluating centers using quality measures, professional recommendations, accreditation data and other indicators, Newsweek's ranking provides patients and families with essential information as they make important decisions about treatment and long-term recovery. Among the facilities highlighted in the 2026 ranking are: * Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation - Rancho Mirage * Newport Integrated Behavioral Healthcare * Rockland Recovery Treatment Center * Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation - Center City * Blake Recovery Center * Nexus Family Recovery Center "Recovery from addiction is rarely a straight path, but access to the right treatment can make a profound difference," said Alexis Kayser, Health Care Editor at Newsweek. "The nation's leading residential treatment centers combine scientific expertise with compassionate care to help patients build healthier futures. We hope that Newsweek's ranking of America's Best Residential Addiction Treatment Centers serves as a trusted resource for anyone seeking high-quality, clinical-grade support for themselves or a loved one." The 2026 ranking considers inpatient/residential and long-term addiction treatment centers, with long-term programs generally requiring a minimum residency of 30 days. Facilities offering only outpatient or short-term addiction treatment services were not included. The ranking covers the 25 states with the highest number of addiction treatment centers, based on data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The ranking is based on four primary data sources: * National Online Survey - Reputation Score (55%): Recommendations and quality assessments from medical professionals and addiction treatment center management and administrators. * Credentials (35%): Accreditation data provided by SAMHSA, incorporating 12 types of accreditations. * Care Services (5%): Evaluation of recovery support, educational and counseling services based on SAMHSA data. * Patient Reviews (5%): Patient review data from Rehabs.com, Recovery.com and Google Reviews, incorporating both average ratings and review volume. For the national online survey, Newsweek and Statista invited thousands of therapists, counselors, medical doctors and addiction treatment facility managers and administrators to recommend notable centers in their respective states. The 2026 analysis also incorporated survey data from the previous two years at a lower weighting, while recommendations for a participant's own employer were prohibited.
