Our History
In 2008, Newport Academy, the initial division of Newport Healthcare, was founded by Jamison Monroe Jr. and his father, who set out to build a comprehensive treatment alternative to rehabilitation. With an approach based on addressing the “why,” not just the “what,” Newport Healthcare’s programs focus on the underlying causes of destructive behaviors, not just the symptoms.
Since its beginnings as a teen treatment program in California, Newport has expanded across the country, with 70+ residential programs and 20+ outpatient programs, serves ages 7–11, 12–18, and 18–35. Our PrairieCare division in Minnesota provides a full continuum of care for all ages, including an inpatient psychiatric hospital for ages 35 and younger.
Today, Newport Healthcare is empowering tens of thousands of children, teens, young adults, and their families through comprehensive treatment programs that achieve unparalleled outcomes.
Our Future
CEO Brian Setzer continues to grow our family of programs, seeking to establish locations in areas where the need for adolescent treatment is great and access to care is limited. As Newport Healthcare reaches out to help more teens, young adults, and families across the United States, Brian and our committed and passionate team remain dedicated not only to results-driven, evidence-based clinical treatment—but also to the compassionate care, sustainable healing and unconditional love that is at the core of our integrated approach.
I’m excited to have the opportunity to continue building upon the great work at Newport, to create an even stronger set of programs to help young people of all identities, genders, and backgrounds.
