Northbrook, IL (June 12, 2025) — Josselyn, a leading Community Mental Health Center, is proud to announce that it has been named to Crain’s Chicago Business Fast 50 list for the second year in a row. As the only nonprofit organization to appear on the list, Josselyn’s back-to-back recognition is a testament to its extraordinary momentum and steadfast commitment to mental health care access in the greater Chicago area.

“Earning a spot on Crain’s Fast 50 list once is an honor. Being recognized two years in a row is a powerful affirmation of our team’s dedication and the growing need for the services we provide,” said Susan Resko, CEO and President of Josselyn. “We are proud to be among Chicago’s fastest-growing organizations, and the only nonprofit again, proving that mission-driven growth can be both scalable and sustainable.”

“Josselyn’s expansion is significantly strengthening the healthcare landscape in Lake County,” said Josselyn Board Member and Northwestern Medicine Lake Forest Hospital President Seamus Collins. “They play a pivotal role in enhancing the overall health and well-being of our community. Josselyn’s impressive growth is a reflection of their unwavering commitment to the mission of making mental health care accessible to all.”
