Rosecrance Overview

Rosecrance is a non-profit, private organization which was first established as an orphanage for a few boys in 1916. The organization has since become a provider of behavioral health services and treatment serving thousands of families per year. With more than 40 locations in Chicago, Iowa, and Wisconsin the organization offers treatment for almost all age groups and offers services including detoxification, residential and outpatient treatment, dual diagnosis support, and intervention. The organization merged with the Janet Wattles Center in 2011 to create Chicago’s most accessible network of behavioral health centers. Both organizations are focused on providing evidence-based treatment and are committed to providing help for children, youths, and adults. The organization first opened its doors to children with behavioral disorders before expanding its scope in 1982 to offer treatment for adolescents struggling with addiction. This was the first center for adolescents battling addiction in Northern Illinois. Rosecrance began offering treatment services for adults in 1992 in downtown Rockford but has since relocated and expanded its inpatient capacity to 98 individuals. The organization offers treatment for addiction at two inpatient centers in Rockford, Illinois: The Harrison Campus and the Griffin Williamson, the former for adults and the latter for adolescents. The organization also offers outpatient and mental health services at the Ware Center in Rockford which caters to adults while the Berry Campus caters to children and families.
