Our history
Over the last 50 years, Nexus has helped thousands of children, families and individuals find individualized paths to emotional, mental and behavioral health. What began in 1972 as a single program in Minnetonka, Minnesota, has grown into a network of nine agencies in four states. We are nationally recognized as a progressive leader in youth and family healing, and we’re more committed than ever to continue this work.
Today, Nexus is a nonprofit, 501(C)(3) organization, headquartered in Plymouth, Minnesota, serving thousands of youth and families each year. We provide community-based mental health services, foster care and adoption services, and residential treatment programs across four states.
We create a customized plan for each child, family, and individual—and provide the exact combination of support services needed to put that plan into action. Our innovative personalized approach helps heal trauma, break cycles of harm, and restore hope to families when all seems lost.
