To Whom It May Concern:

We are writing to inform you of exciting changes occurring at Peninsula Village! Effective today, Monday, November 2nd, 2009 ownership of Peninsula Village will officially change from Parkwest Medical Center to Acadia Healthcare. The facility's legal name will also change to "The Village" at this time. Aside from this, the current operation of the clinical program and the facility itself will continue as you know it today. We would like to assure you that, under Acadia's new leadership, the program's clinicians and leadership team will continue to provide the same level of commitment to quality care that has been a hallmark here at The Village.

Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, Acadia provides psychiatric and chemical dependency services in a variety of settings including psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers for adolescents and children, outpatient clinics and therapeutic school-based programs. In addition to its Georgia headquarters, Acadia has facilities in Louisiana, Montana, Hawaii and Texas. We, at The Village, are excited about the opportunity to serve the needs of adolescents and their families in our care. We would like to thank you for your continued support for the important work that The Village does.

Please note that while there are no significant changes to the referral process as you know it; we are working diligently to improve the process and reduce turnaround time going forward. We hope to become your Residential Treatment Center of choice and appreciate your feedback on an ongoing basis. Please feel free to contact our Director of Business Development, Barbara Amburn, with any questions or concerns at 800-255-TEEN (8336), option 2
