After seeing a gap in the foster care system due to limited resources, we made it our purpose to offer children in the Pennsylvania child welfare system a happy, safe, and healthy home. For over 20 years, Family Care for Children & Youth, Inc. has worked to provide children in need of loving homes where they feel they belong.
We understand that every child and family has unique needs and circumstances. Our experienced case management team respects the diversity of each client and is dedicated to providing the children, youth, and families we serve with a personalized approach, which is tailored to the specific needs of each case.

Family Care for Children & Youth, Inc. is passionate about being a positive force in Pennsylvania communities across the state. We have found success in helping our children, youth and families with our approach that emphasizes Choice Theory, Reality Therapy, and Trauma Informed Care. The strategy allows us to understand human behaviors, reactions, and personalities on a completely new level to help meet the individual needs of each case. Both theories emphasize that people choose their behaviors and therefore have the ability to change them. Choice Theory provides a non-judgmental framework for understanding a person’s situation, focusing on their perspective, behaviors, and motivations rather than assigning blame. Reality Therapy, based on Choice Theory, then uses this understanding to develop practical and action-based plans to address the issues a person is facing. Reality Therapy helps individuals identify their desired outcomes, assess their current behaviors, evaluate if those behaviors are effective, and create a plan for change.
Each of our Permanency Case Managers have bachelor’s degrees or graduate degrees and receive thorough training to best serve our children, youth, and families. We are dedicated professionals who want to make a difference.
