About The Devereux Foundation

The Devereux Foundation, also known as Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health, was founded in 1912 by Helena Devereux. The organization has grown into a national network serving individuals, families, schools and communities across the country. Devereux operates 14 centers in 13 states and employs more than 6,000 people.

What Happened?

On Nov. 9, 2025, The Devereux Foundation discovered suspicious activity within its electronic systems. The a ransomware group known as The Gentlemen claimed responsibility for the attack, announcing on the dark web on Nov. 28, 2025, that they had obtained data from Devereux and intended to publish it within days.

  • Demographic information
  • Clinical information

The breach potentially impacts current and former employees, clients, donors, payors and business partners whose information was stored by Devereux.

Your Rights and Next Steps

If you believe your information may have been involved in this breach, there are several steps you can take to protect yourself:

  • Monitor your account statements and credit reports for any unauthorized or suspicious activity.
  • Take advantage of your right to obtain a free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.
  • Consider placing a fraud alert or a credit freeze on your credit file. A fraud alert makes it harder for identity thieves to open accounts in your name, while a credit freeze restricts access to your credit report entirely.
  • If you receive a letter from Devereux, follow the instructions to enroll in complimentary credit monitoring services.
  • Stay vigilant for the next 12 to 24 months, as identity theft and fraud can occur long after a breach.
