About Northeast Treatment Centers
Northeast Treatment Centers (NET) offers support and hope to individuals and families at times of great stress in their lives. Founded in 1970, NET is a Philadelphia-based nonprofit that has served children, youth, and families across the region for more than five decades. NET operates through its subsidiary, NET Community Care, as a Community Umbrella Agency under contract with the Philadelphia Department of Human Services, delivers a continuum of juvenile justice programs in partnership with the Philadelphia Juvenile Probation Office, and provides foster care, adoption, case management, violence prevention, and family support services across multiple sites in the city.
In May 2026, NET and JEVS Human Services jointly announced a service integration plan in which NET’s behavioral health services in Philadelphia and Delaware will be integrated into JEVS. The plan was developed collaboratively with Community Behavioral Health and reflects a shared commitment to continuity of care for clients and continued employment for staff. JEVS, an 85-year-old Philadelphia institution, brings deep operational capacity and a complementary mission. Both organizations will continue to advance their missions following the integration, which is expected to complete by the end of calendar year 2026.
With this integration, NET will continue to focus on the trauma-informed social service programs in which it has the deepest community roots and the strongest outcomes. NET 2.0 will operate at approximately $32 million in annual revenue across Philadelphia-based locations, carries no debt, and is largely program-funded rather than fee-for-service. The continuing service portfolio includes case management, community engagement, foster care, residential care, adoption, juvenile justice services, violence prevention programs, parenting programs, and child welfare services. NET enters its next chapter with operating surplus, balance sheet stability, a strong and tenured senior team, and an engaged Board of Directors.
