As a leading provider of foster care services and child and family services, SAFY partners with individuals, caregivers, and communities to support the youth and families we serve.

Our Services

SAFY provides family-centered services to address the underlying causes of trauma to create meaningful change.

Our comprehensive foster care services, family supportive services, and behavioral health services are built to strengthen families, support foster families, and improve outcomes for youth. We work closely with foster parents and families to provide the guidance, tools, and behavioral health support needed to feel connected.

By fostering positive behavioral health through all our services, we build the well-being essential to unlocking the full potential of those we serve.

SAFY’s approach is rooted in collaboration, meeting youth and families where they are and walking alongside them every step of the way. Through personalized support, strong community partnerships, and a focus on stability and connection, we help create environments where children feel safe, supported, and understood. Our teams prioritize building trust and strengthening relationships, helping families develop the skills and confidence needed to navigate challenges and move forward together.

SAFY is committed to delivering ongoing family supportive services, growing our foster parent network to support our communities, and helping youth and families create lasting change.
