On Sunday, September 1, 2024, The New York Times published an article titled "How a Leading Chain of Psychiatric Hospitals Traps Patients." The piece revealed that Acadia Healthcare, one of America's largest psychiatric hospital chains, has seen a surge in revenue since the pandemic intensified the national mental health crisis. However, an investigation found that some of this success stemmed from troubling practices: Acadia allegedly lured patients into its facilities and held them against their will, even when such detentions were not medically warranted. Records reviewed by The Times indicated that in at least 12 of the 19 states where Acadia operates, numerous patients, employees, and police officers had reported unlawful detentions. In some instances, judges had to step in to compel Acadia to release patients.

As a result of this news, Acadia Healthcare's stock price dropped by 4.5% on September 3, 2024.
