Research opportunities With Real-World Impact

Research That Validates Outcomes

The ASC Charitable Foundation is committed to using research not only to validate outcomes, but to drive policy and investment in what works.

 All capital improvements at ASC are designed to demonstrate the long-term benefits of re-engineered therapeutic environments. Our research model emphasizes transparency, participant benefit, and real-time application. Every dollar raised supports services that directly impact client outcomes and build a replicable, sustainable mental health model. In a field often burdened by delayed results and unclear goals, ASC is providing an evidence-based path forward for communities in crisis.

Our Initiatives

We’re raising $10 million to create lasting systems of care — and a new kind of future for our clients.

Every dollar supports long-term healing beyond clinical care.

Imagine what’s possible when someone has the care, community, and support they need — for life.

Design Is Clinical

Evidence shows that healing environments reduce behavioral crises, increase treatment engagement, and lead to better long-term outcomes. But most mental health facilities remain sterile, outdated, and uninspiring.
This project isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about building a system that works. A space where recovery feels possible, people feel safe, and healing becomes sustainable. We’re showing California and the country that you don’t have to rebuild from scratch to create something revolutionary.
