Our person-centered care allows children and adults to work toward independence and reach their full potential. Each year, 1,000 children and adults participate in our residential and community-based programs.
Juvenile Justice
Through intervention programs, we help young people escape the maze of the juvenile justice system. 94% of those who completed our Families Rising program avoided a criminal record.
