Three Springs Acquired
By Sequel Youth And Family Services

Sequel Youth and Family Services, a nationally recognized leader in youth services, announces the acquisition of privately held Three Springs, Inc. (TSI) a leading provider of specialized behavioral health treatment for adolescents. Three Springs Inc. headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama is a strategic and valued addition to Sequel. The acquisition will extend the company's geographic footprint with the combined companies operating 22 programs across the country. Paint Rock Valley, an outdoor therapeutic program located in Trenton, AL and Auldern Academy, a therapeutic boarding school located in Siler City, NC will add private educational and therapeutic programming to Sequel's continuum of service. Leadership in these programs will remain unchanged. Three Springs' referral sources, clients and families will continue to receive the same level of quality and support as both companies will work to ensure a seamless transition. The merger of these organizations will create a company that is stronger programmatically and financially. The combined entity will be stronger than either company standing alone and perfectly positions the organization for growth and continued service excellence. Most importantly, Chairman, Jay Ripley states, "we will stay true to the operating philosophy and core values shared by both Sequel and Three Springs."
