Background information about Gaudenzia, Inc. A group of distinguished business, politician and community leaders recognized a serious problem for the city of Philadelphia – a growing number of people suffering from addiction were unable to find help. Determined to address the problem, these leaders invited a small group of substance abuse treatment professionals to create a residential treatment program that would save the lives of individuals otherwise doomed by their drug and alcohol addictions.

Background information about Eastern University
Eastern College was founded in 1932 as a department of the Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary. In 1952, the college became a separate institution called Eastern Baptist College and was accredited two years later. The name was changed to Eastern College in 1972 to increase the appeal of the college to all evangelical Christians, though the college retains its relationship to the American Baptist Churches in the U.S.A. Eastern was granted University status in 2001 by the PA Department of Education.
