Addressing the Needs
of Foster Kids
At Walden Family Services, we provide a nurturing environment for a diverse range of children and young adults, including those facing unique challenges. Our team is dedicated to supporting children who are medically fragile, as well as sibling groups, individuals with developmental disabilities, and those experiencing mental health challenges. We also offer specialized care for LGBTQIA+ youth, ensuring they feel safe and accepted.
At Walden Family Services, we understand the unique challenges faced by foster youth as they transition out of the foster care system. Our Transitional Housing Program (THP) is dedicated to providing foster adults with the support and resources they need to be confident and stable. By working closely with each individual, we make sure they have access to safe housing, educational opportunities, employment assistance, and life skills training.
