Skilled Nursing Care is provided around the clock and various therapies and activities are made available in effort to improve healthcare outcomes and maintenance.

  2. Youth Empowerment Program teaches valuable independent living skills. We empower and teach older foster youth the important life skills necessary to make a smooth traction into adulthood, granting our clients increased relationship skills, enhanced self esteem, self confidence, improved behavior and interpersonal skills, better decision making & problem solving skills and trusted adults to turn to when in need. We aim to improve the lives of children and teens in foster care, those transitioning out of the foster system, as well as support families. We have developed programs designed to promote more positive life outcomes and to amplify potential outcomes for our youth. When youth are granted access to information & resources and are able to share regular positive interactions with trusted adults, there is a significant decrease in the likelihood of drug and/or alcohol abuse, crime and under age pregnancy. We served 725 children. We also added a 5-acre Calabasas location to create a Therapeutic Recreation Space, and a Greenbush location to hold Youth Empowerment events and swim classes for youth.

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $231 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
