Omni Footprint Doubles and Expands Human and Behavioral Health Services for Children, Adults and Families

NASHVILLE, Tenn. and PITTSBURGH, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Omni Family of Services, a national leader in child welfare and behavioral health, announced today that it has acquired leading social services agency, JusticeWorks YouthCare. The Pittsburgh-based agency currently operates in six states and is best known for its signature programs and services addressing child welfare and juvenile justice systems of care.

Omni Family of Services has acquired JusticeWorks YouthCare, expanding human and behavioral health services

"We are so excited to welcome JusticeWorks to our Omni family," said Omni Family of Services CEO, Jane Wintz. "Founder, Dan Heit, and the entire team at JusticeWorks have dedicated their lives to building better futures for youth, families and communities. I've long admired their work and the programs they've built to support children and families. They complement and go hand-in-hand with the work we do at Omni."

She continued: "With this acquisition, not only will our Omni footprint expand, we'll bring JusticeWorks programs and services to our Omni clients to help even more families thrive."

Founded in 1999 by renowned behavioral health leader Dan Heit, JusticeWorks partners with public and private agencies to provide impactful and cost-effective services across six states including Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Nevada, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The organization employs over 600 employees, who will become employee-owners as a result of the acquisition. Heit notes that the acquisition is both mission-aligned and a win for JusticeWorks employees.

"Our mission has always been to build better futures for children and families," said Heit. "We know that Omni Family of Services shares that same passion and mission. When we started talking about what it could look like for us to join forces, we quickly realized that we could really accelerate the change we want to see in the world by doing this work together."

Heit continued: "We're already a team of changemakers—and so is Omni. Now, as a member of the Omni and 3LS Inc. family of employee-owned companies, our team members will benefit from the value that their exceptional work helps create. The future is going to be very exciting."

Heit will continue to serve JusticeWorks YouthCare as CEO Emeritus. In addition, Omni's services will expand from five states to 10, and the organization's employee size will increase to more than 1,200—both critical milestones for 3LS Inc. CEO, Eric Strickland.

"We are thrilled to welcome the JusticeWorks team, not just into the Omni family, but into our 3LS family of employee-owned companies," said Strickland. "We're essentially doubling the amount of people participating in our employee ownership plan and most importantly, we're doubling the number of kids and families we're serving. It's a win across the board."
