Our
services
therapeutic foster care
Our Therapeutic Foster Care (TFC) services provide a stable home environment with families who care for and believe any child or teen can achieve their full potential. Utilizing a team of highly-qualified treatment foster homes, we support each youth’s greatest needs. Our foster families are equipped with tools such as parental skill building and behavioral coping skills to ensure each child’s physical and emotional health needs are met. Our foster parents serve as Agents of Hope, a mentoring bridge between youth and their biological or adoptive family, securing a child and teen’s safety, permanency, and well-being.
adoption through foster care
There are fewer things more important than ensuring that every child is a part of a loving, nurturing, safe, forever family. When a youth cannot return to their biological family, SAFY Adoption services bridge their journey to a forever family and support families who desire to adopt through foster care.
independent living services
Our Independent Living Services provide the tools youth need to build and maintain a strong foundation for the transition into adulthood. We work alongside youth building a strong foundation focusing on their skills to become productive members of their community. We provide concrete supports to help youth achieve self-sufficiency and thrive.
We provide youth opportunities to achieve the future they envision for themselves through:
- Safe and stable housing
- Physical and mental health
- Preparation for post-secondary education
- Job readiness and searches
- Financial education
- Social skills
- Parenting skills
