Our History | TODAY, Inc. FOUNDATION

  • In 1970, a small group of concerned Bucks County community leaders explored the possibility of establishing a comprehensive, residential rehabilitation program for adolescent substance abusers.
  • Their backgrounds in the fields of law enforcement, drug enforcement, legal counsel, corrections and special education made these individuals (John D. Case, William H. Eastburn, William D. Ford, John L. Hopson and Earl W. McWilliams, Ph.D.) aware of the need for such a program. The initial funding of $5,000 was made available through a grant from the Bucks County Bar Association.
  • After months of planning, research and discussion, TODAY, Inc. was born. Intended to be an alternative to incarceration, the organization would be a private, free-standing, non-profit agency. One which would be accessible to all, regardless of economic, ethnic or religious backgrounds.
  • Since its opening on March 1, 1971 it provided comprehensive prevention, intervention and treatment services to adolescents and young adults, through a variety of inpatient and outpatient modalities.
  • In recent years we have discontinued our direct care services and launched the TODAY, Inc. FOUNDATION. The FOUNDATION is a philanthropic organization that provides financial support to improve behavioral health of children, adolescents and adults in Bucks County, PA.
