Since 1965, Youth Homes has supported underserved youth and young adults with complex mental health and behavioral challenges. We provide a broad range of services to empower young people and their families to create positive, sustainable change.
Annually, we serve over 200 youth and their families through an innovative set of services rooted in a trauma-informed approach to care. 90% of the youth we work with struggle with unresolved trauma stemming from experiences with or exposure to violence, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect.
We are proud of our long-standing partnerships with the county, educators, social workers, courts, and clinicians. These relationships enable us to work together to heal trauma and prioritize youth well-being by listening with the intent to understand and collaborating on decisions that lead to positive, long-term outcomes.
Youth Homes recognizes and is sensitive to the impact of societal oppression and social and economic injustices on our clients, staff, and communities; therefore, we are committed to serving from a trauma-informed perspective that fosters a culture of safety, empowerment, and healing.
Organization Description : We nurture an inclusive environment of healing through trauma-informed care for Bay Area foster youth and young adults.
