Alpharus Health Purchases 315 N. Racine For Permanent Chicago Office

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Chicago, IL, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alpharus Health has purchased the building at 315 N. Racine Avenue in Chicago's Fulton Market neighborhood to establish a permanent home in the city where the organization's mission first began in 1968. The acquisition marks an important milestone for the nonprofit behavioral healthcare provider, reinforcing its longstanding commitment to Chicago while creating new opportunities to expand access to care for residents across the region.

For nearly six decades, Chicago has served as the foundation of the organization's work helping people impacted by substance use and mental health conditions. What began as a grassroot effort has grown into a leading behavioral healthcare organization serving communities across the country. The purchase of 315 N. Racine represents a meaningful investment in both the organization's future and the city where its story began.

"This building represents far more than a new address," said Jeremy Klemanski, President and CEO of Alpharus Health. "Chicago is where our mission was born, where generations of dedicated staff have helped change lives, and where we continue to see tremendous need for behavioral healthcare services. Establishing a permanent home here reaffirms our commitment to this community and to the people who depend on us every day."

The purchase comes during a transformative period for the organization, which recently announced a rebrand from Gateway Foundation to Alpharus Health. While the name has evolved, the commitment to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care and expanding access to treatment for those who need it most remains the same.

"As we prepare to open our doors in this new space, we are creating a resource for our entire organization," Klemanski said. "This building will support operations across our programs, strengthen staff professional development, and advance excellence in substance use and mental health care for years to come."
