Crossroads Treatment Centers Receives 2025 South Carolina Top Workplaces Award
Substance Use Disorder Treatment Organization Honored for the Second Consecutive Year GREENVILLE, S.C., May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Crossroads Treatment Centers (Crossroads), a national provider of substance use disorder (SUD) treatment with seven locations in South Carolina, announced today the esteemed recognition as a 2025 South Carolina Top Workplace. This annual award recognizes companies in the state for creating a positive and engaging work environment using employee feedback. Crossroads was among only a few workplaces to receive the honor, marking its second consecutive year of earning the award. 'We're extremely proud to have cultivated an environment where our teammates feel appreciated and fulfilled,' said Jonathan Foust, Chief People Officer at Crossroads. 'We wouldn't be able to provide the high caliber of care to our patients and communities if it weren't for every single one of our dedicated teammates, and it's important that they know how deeply we value their work.' Earlier this month, Crossroads celebrated its 20th anniversary, highlighting its growth over the last two decades, with more than 100 treatment centers across nine states. The organization provides personalized treatment plans for individuals with SUD using a combination of medication and behavioral health therapies. 'Creating a workplace where teammates are passionate about their job and empowered to make a difference has allowed us to grow and expand access to even more patients who need our care,' said Rupert McCormac IV, MD, Founder and CEO of Crossroads. 'Evidence to the strength of our culture and caring for each other, the Crossroads team was also recently recognized by USA Today as a 2025 Top Workplace.' The South Carolina Top Workplace list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage, LLC. The confidential survey uniquely measures the employee experience and its component themes, including employees feeling respected, supported and enabled to grow. 'Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,' said Eric Rubino, CEO at Energage. 'That's something to be proud of. In today's market, leaders must ensure they're allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That's paramount. Top Workplaces does this, and it pays dividends.' The Top Workplace accolades are testaments to the hard work of leaders and team members and their collective dedication to cultivating and maintaining a great work environment for the past 20 years.
