Closed or Changed Residential Programs: Status and Sources

Find Treatment

Programs can close, change owners or change their services while older listings remain online. This page brings together the status changes we can source. It is a research starting point, not an endorsed directory or a placement service.

A program missing from this page has not been cleared or checked. A program included here has not necessarily done anything wrong. A license marked active does not mean a bed is available. Before making decisions, check the state licensing record and contact the program directly.

How to Read These Entries

We separate an announced closure from a confirmed closure, and a one-location change from a change across a whole organization. Sources were re-read October 14, 2026. Historical news reports are labeled by date; they do not verify every aspect of a program today. Allegations and unverified claims are not included in this draft.

KidsPeace Bowdon, Georgia

Status: Planned closure, not confirmed closed

KidsPeace announced on August 24, 2026 that it plans to close its Bowdon residential treatment program and end operations in Georgia by the end of 2026. This is an announced plan, not confirmation that the program has already closed.

Source: KidsPeace announcement. Source checked October 14, 2026.

Three Points Center, Hurricane, Utah

Status: Closure reported February 14, 2025

KUTV reported that Three Points Center shut down on February 14, 2025. This entry records the closure only, not allegations or conclusions about care.

Source: KUTV, February 14, 2025. Source checked October 14, 2026.

Villa Santa Maria, Cedar Crest, New Mexico

Status: Closure notice effective after November 30, 2021

A program notice reproduced by All Kinds of Therapy says Villa Santa Maria would be closed after November 30, 2021. The source is a reproduced notice, not a current state-license record.

Source: Reproduced program notice, November 2021. Source checked October 14, 2026.

Warwick House, Hartsville, Pennsylvania

Status: Closure announced in May 2023; completion unconfirmed

The Philadelphia Business Journal reported a filing that said closure would begin May 10, 2023 and take 60 to 74 days. That report does not independently confirm completion. We do not label it fully closed on that evidence alone.

Master’s Ranch Girls Academy at Belle Vie, Missouri

Status: One location closed; not a whole-network closure

The Kansas City Star reported on September 16, 2022 that the Belle Vie girls program officially closed August 1, 2022, with the last student leaving July 23. The article described two companion Missouri schools as operating at that time. Their current status has not been verified here. Do not treat this as a closure of every Master’s Ranch program.

KidsPeace and Inperium

Status: Affiliation announced May 4, 2026

Inperium announced an affiliation with KidsPeace on May 4, 2026. An affiliation is not a closure. The separate planned Georgia closure is recorded above; this entry does not claim that every KidsPeace site changed services or stopped operating.

Source: Inperium announcement. Source checked October 14, 2026.

Nexus East Bethel Family Healing, Minnesota

Status: License active in state lookup

The Minnesota state lookup for license 1119782 shows Active as checked October 14, 2026. Its record lists a June 17, 2026 summary of settlement agreement and an amended temporary immediate suspension dated June 3, 2026. An active license does not establish bed availability, admissions or current occupancy. Confirm those directly.

Source: Minnesota licensing lookup. Source checked October 14, 2026.

Before Contacting a Program

  • Check the exact program name and location, not just the parent organization.
  • Confirm the license status with the state agency responsible for that program.
  • Ask the program about admissions, openings, services and payment directly. This page does not track those.
  • Save the source and the date you checked it.
