Health and Human Services Agency, Child Welfare Services is committed to excellent delivery of culturally competent, family-centered and child-focused protective services.
The Foster Youth Mentor Program matches caring adults with foster children. Foster children are dependents of the Juvenile Dependency Court, and are generally residing in a foster home or a group home. The Mentors provide the children with a supportive and enriching one-on-one relationship that will aid in developing self-esteem. Activities may include providing transportation, tutoring, and various social/educational outings.
