About us
Foundations For Living, a residential treatment facility situated in Mansfield, Ohio, offers specialized care to adolescent men and women who are grappling with behavioral, emotional, and psychological challenges, as well as co-occurring disorders. The center provides a structured and supportive environment that is specifically designed to assist young individuals in managing and overcoming a diverse array of mental health issues. Foundations For Living is dedicated to providing comprehensive treatment programs that not only address the immediate symptoms but also the underlying causes of these disorders.
The center’s specialized programs are one of its most distinctive offerings, as they are each individually designed to address the distinct requirements of distinct populations. The Passages Program is intended for adolescents who are coping with anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, melancholy, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse, or other mental illnesses. The expectant Youth Program is another critical initiative that offers focused treatment and assistance to expectant adolescents who are grappling with substance-related and mental health issues. This program provides both hope and care for a brighter future. The Journeys Program also provides a therapeutic environment that is specifically designed to address the complex trauma associated with human trafficking, allowing victims to begin the process of healing from their experiences.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused therapy, and individual, group, and family therapy are among the therapies offered at Foundations For Living. These evidence-based approaches are incorporated into the personalized treatment plan of each adolescent, guaranteeing that the emotional, psychological, and relational aspects of their recovery are comprehensively addressed. The center also provides educational services to residents, enabling them to maintain their academic progress while undergoing treatment and preventing them from falling behind in their education during the recovery process. Foundations For Living is entirely accredited by the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). These accreditations underscore the center’s dedication to upholding the most stringent standards of care and guaranteeing that each client receives compassionate, effective treatment in a secure and nurturing environment.

We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. Thatโs why weโve developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centersโfrom accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. Youโll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.
