Youth Villages is a national leader in mental and behavioral health committed to finding the most effective solutions to help children, families and young adults overcome obstacles and live successfully. Working through direct services, partnerships, with innovative public agencies and advocacy, we collaborate to bring positive change to child welfare, children’s mental health and justice systems. Last fiscal year, our 5,000 employees served more than 50,000 children and young adults in more than 120 locations in 30 states and the District of Columbia. Youth Villages has been recognized by the Harvard Business School and U.S. News & World Report and was identified by The White House as one of the nation’s most promising results-oriented nonprofit organizations.
At Bethany Christian Services, demonstrating the love and compassion of Jesus is more than our mission. It’s our calling. Across the U.S., we offer an array of services designed to protect children, empower youth, and strengthen families. Because when families are stronger, children are safer.
Our 80-year history is grounded in faith and marked by best practices in child and family services. Together with parents, caregivers, and community partners, we deliver programs that meet families where they are, ensuring they and their children are safe, loved, and connected. Every child deserves that.
We envision a society that respects the dignity of every single person. And we're working to realize it.
We work with others who share our vision to tackle the most pressing injustices of our day - from the causes and consequences of mass incarceration, racial disparities, and the loss of public trust in law enforcement, to the unmet needs of the vulnerable, the marginalized, and those harmed by crime and violence.
