On January 10, 2023, two Ohio Children's Alliance member agencies, the Buckeye Ranch and Nationwide Children’s Hospital, announced a new partnership to address the need for higher acuity care for youth and their families with a new 48-bed residential mental health treatment facility. This collaboration aims to create optimal residential treatment programs to bridge inpatient psychiatric treatment for youth with especially challenging needs. With more than 57,000 square feet, the new state-of-the-art facility at The Buckeye Ranch is expected to break ground in spring 2023. It will include a new education center, up-to-date space for intensive treatment, and a crisis stabilization center – all allowing for greater family engagement, involvement, and visitation. Overall, the facility will provide families with additional access to residential treatment and more intensive help for youth with serious emotional and behavioral health concerns. The expansion will be funded through a combination of operations and community philanthropy. Click here for more information and to access the full press release. Congratulations to the Buckeye Ranch and Nationwide Children’s Hospital on this exciting expansion!
