    Descrição

    ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW

    New Yorkers For Children (NYFC), www.newyorkersforchildren.org, was founded in 1996 as an independent partner to the NYC Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) to help meet the needs of youth in foster care that the system could not provide. Across all of our programming, we ensure these young people receive the necessary academic, professional, and personal support services they need to thrive as independent adults.

    New Yorkers For Children occupies a unique position within New York City’s child welfare landscape. As the non-profit partner of ACS and with strong ties to all of the foster care agencies, we have a deep understanding of the needs of the foster care population. Meanwhile, our independence allows youth to view NYFC as the “missing puzzle piece” in the system, fostering a safe space for developing close relationships and addressing mental health challenges collaboratively.

    As we look ahead to our 30th anniversary, NYFC is launching an ambitious new strategy, transforming alongside ACS to reach more young people impacted by the child welfare and juvenile justice systems with career and life-skills opportunities and financial assistance in a new career pathways program. We will deepen our niche focus on providing sound financial management and agility in an otherwise complex system to help bring bold new ideas to fruition. And above all, we will maintain our role as independent, trusted advisors to the youth we serve, persisting in our decades-long history of meeting young people where they are to help them discover who they want to be.
