Company Overview
Youth Villages is a nonprofit organization striving to help troubled youth and families live successfully. We are a team of 4500 individuals who’ve come together across 27 states to change the landscape of child welfare and juvenile justice across the country. Our work involves providing an array of counseling and treatment services to 43000 youth annually with severe emotional and behavioral problems.
Eighty-four percent of those who go through treatment are succeeding two years after leaving our program. These youth are living at home, remaining in school, and are not experiencing trouble with the law.

The program specializes in diverting youth from out of home placements by helping their families safely maintain youth in their home environment.
