Free listings for EIN-verified non-profits

Non-profit treatment organisations provide essential care. We recognise that with a dedicated badge and a competitor-free profile — at no charge.

Non-profit badge

A teal Non-profit badge appears on your facility card and detail page, letting families know your organisation is EIN-verified and mission-driven — not profit-motivated.

Competitor-free profile

Your facility detail page will not show the "Nearby Sponsored listings" module or advertising slots. Families who find you stay focused on your care — not on an adjacent ad for a for-profit competitor.

Frequently asked questions

Is this free forever?

Yes. The Non-profit badge and competitor-free page are free for verified non-profit organisations as long as they remain listed on ChooseHelp. We may introduce optional paid enhancements in the future, but the core non-profit benefits will stay free.

What counts as a confirmed non-profit?

Any US-registered 501(c)(3) treatment organisation with a current IRS EIN determination letter qualifies. We do not currently verify non-profit status in other countries, though we plan to add that.

Does the badge affect my search ranking?

The badge is a trust signal for families — it does not affect your search ranking on ChooseHelp. Ranking is based on data completeness, reviews, and geographic relevance.

Can for-profit facilities get the Non-profit badge?

No. The badge is reserved for EIN-verified non-profit organisations only. Misrepresentation of non-profit status will result in badge removal and listing suspension.
