COVINGTON, KY – April 13, 2026 – OneQuest Health, a leader in integrated physical and mental well-being, has received a second $1 million investment from the Yung Family Foundation. This second consecutive gift reaffirms the Foundation’s multi-year pledge to provide Kentucky families with access to world-class behavioral health services. 

The previous investment focused on infrastructure, digital access, and talent strategy. This latest $1 million gift will underwrite personnel costs. Specifically, it will support the recruitment and retention of integrated medical care and clinical treatment service providers. The gift will benefit OneQuest Health’s entire service region, which includes the Commonwealth of Kentucky as well as southern Ohio and Indiana. 

This investment arrives at a particularly critical time for Kentucky: 

"The Foundation’s second $1 million investment in OneQuest Health in as many years reflects the Yung Family Foundation's unwavering confidence in what this organization is building,” said Derek Haught, Foundation Director. “When you see a team dedicated to delivering integrated, whole-person care to those who need it most, you don't step back—you lean in. This is all the more important when state and federal support is often insufficient or lacking," said.

OneQuest Health, previously known as CHNK Behavioral Health, continues to scale services to meet Kentucky’s growing mental health crisis. The organization has increased its workforce and clinical capacity by 150% since 2022. It established a partnership for workforce development with Northern Kentucky University, and last month announced the opening of a new Louisville outpatient facility. 

"We serve a population that relies overwhelmingly on Medicaid, and we are proud to do so—but we cannot pretend that the current reimbursement landscape makes it easy,” said Rick Wurth, CEO of OneQuest Health. “The funding we receive from supporters like the Yung Family Foundation is what allows us to retain exceptional clinical talent, expand integrated services, and keep our doors open to the people who need us most. Mr. and Mrs. Yung, their family members, and the Foundation don't just believe in our mission; they make it financially viable." 

OneQuest Health is dedicated to transforming America’s health by championing a proactive, integrated approach to physical and mental well-being. Built on the nearly 150-year legacy of CHNK Behavioral Health, OneQuest empowers individuals and communities to move beyond reactive care, fostering healthier, more resilient lives through a scalable, sustainable, and empathy-driven system of care. For fiscal year 2026 OneQuest, is on track to perform 50,000 treatment services, representing 7,000 client impacts across Kentucky and parts of Ohio and Indiana.

COVINGTON, KY – April 1, 2026 – OneQuest Health (formerly CHNK Behavioral Health) invites the community to its 2026 annual fundraising event, the Building Bridges to Better Futures Breakfast, on Friday, April 10, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM. The event will be held at the Drees Pavilion at Devou Park, located at 790 Park Lane, Covington, KY 41011.

Members of the public interested in attending or sponsoring the event can register by contacting the OneQuest team at 

This year’s breakfast marks a pivotal chapter in OneQuest’s nearly 150-year legacy as it scales its proactive, integrated model to transform mental health care across the Commonwealth. Funds raised during the event directly support the essential treatment services provided to children and families served by OneQuest. 

"This event is more than a breakfast; it is a call to action for our community to ‘get off the bench’ and join our quest to build a healthier future,” said Rick Wurth, CEO of OneQuest Health. “With 3.4 million Kentuckians living in mental health professional shortage areas, the need for a scalable, sustainable system of care has never been greater.”  

OneQuest Health is proud to recognize its generous Gold Level Sponsors, whose vital support enables the organization to continue its mission of providing world-class behavioral and mental health services: DBL Law, John Mocker, Tim and Patti Lally, and Lally Pipe and Tube, and The Dr. George A. and Delores E. Renaker Charitable Foundation. 

OneQuest Health currently serves clients in Ohio, Indiana, and from 85 of Kentucky’s 120 counties, providing a full continuum of care including residential treatment, outpatient services, and new wellness initiatives.

OneQuest Health to Host Annual “Building Bridges to Better Futures” Breakfast; Honoring The Yung Family Foundation

COVINGTON, KY – MARCH 17, 2026 – OneQuest Health, a nearly 150-year-old healthcare organization currently impacting clients from 85 of the 120 counties of Kentucky, today announced the opening its first outpatient mental health office in Louisville. The expansion marks another major milestone in the organization’s quest to transform Kentucky’s health by scaling integrated, proactive mental health care across the Commonwealth. 

Located in the Medical Arts Center at 1169 Eastern Parkway, the new facility will provide individual, couples, and family therapy to those grappling with mental illness, addiction, and other behavioral challenges that impact their stability at home, in the workplace, and throughout the community. Patients also have access to telehealth to create an easier path to mental health and for intensive outpatient programming. 

The expansion comes as Kentucky’s mental health system faces a persistent crisis. Currently, 3.4 million Kentuckians live in mental health professional shortage areas. This lack of accessible care has led to dire systemic consequences:

"Our board of trustees and 165 team members are truly excited about our new Louisville location," said Rick Wurth, CEO of OneQuest Health.  "More resources coming into OneQuest Health via both private and public funding streams equals more impact - especially among populations who experience more barriers to mental healthcare services.  We are putting our donations to work quickly and effectively around the Commonwealth."

OneQuest Health expects the Louisville office to open Spring 2026, expanding access for residents of Jefferson and surrounding counties. This is OneQuest Health’s second new office opening in less than two years. OneQuest Health also operates treatment locations in Burlington, Covington, and Williamstown, Kentucky, with many services accessible via telehealth to reach clients wherever they are. 

OneQuest Health Continues Growth, Increasing Mental Health Services, with First Louisville Outpatient Expansion 

COVINGTON, KY – February 23, 2026 – OneQuest Health, a regional leader in integrated physical and mental well-being, today announced a generous and transformative $1 million investment from the Yung Family Foundation. This landmark gift is one of the most significant philanthropic contributions in the organization’s nearly 150-year history and represents a powerful vote of confidence in the new OneQuest Health mission and its commitment to the Commonwealth, and beyond. Derek Haught of the Yung Family Foundation will also be joining the OneQuest Health Foundation board.

The funding will immediately translate into exciting, necessary interventions that will support both residential and outpatient clients currently receiving care. Specifically, the investment will be allocated across three critical areas:

"We are incredibly grateful to Derek Haught and the Yung Family Foundation for their generous and impactful investment," said Rick Wurth, Chief Executive Officer of OneQuest Health. “This gift is more than financial support; it is a profound affirmation of our mission and our vision for integrated, proactive health care. The Yung Family Foundation is building capacity in Kentucky at a time when it’s most needed, and their partnership ensures we can continue to deliver on the promise of easier, better mental health support for our community.”

The Yung Family Foundation has long expressed a desire to bolster healthcare capacity in Kentucky, a commitment that aligns perfectly with OneQuest Health’s regional focus. The Foundation's interest in sustained partnership is underscored by its plans for Derek Haught to join the OneQuest Health Foundation board. In recognition of this transformative contribution, the Yung Family Foundation will also be honored as the "Bridge Builder of the Year" at OneQuest Health’s upcoming annual breakfast fundraising event.

"The Yung Family Foundation invested in OneQuest Health, noting its legacy in our community dating back to 1880 but also recognizing that this organization had a true appetite and plan to transform its future,” said Derek Haught, Foundation Director, The Yung Family Foundation. “Integrated mental healthcare services provided in a wide continuum of care—and with a compassionate commitment to vulnerable populations—was a vision our board embraced and wanted to support. This gift represents a multi-year commitment to ensuring that Northern Kentucky families have world-class behavioral and mental health services available right here, close to home."
