JCCA, formerly known as Jewish Child Care Association, provides comprehensive care to thousands of children, young people and families who come from New York’s diverse communities. Since 1822, we have embraced those who need us most — abused, neglected and traumatized young people who are struggling with poverty, developmental disabilities and complex mental illness. Our programs include foster and residential care, educational assistance and remediation, case management for young people with mental health challenges and services to families to prevent child abuse and maltreatment. JCCA offers safety, stability and lifesaving support to help our clients transform their lives. JCCA programs help more than 16,000 children and families annually. We are one of the oldest, most distinguished child and family services organizations in the nation. We have helped more than a million abused, traumatized and neglected children heal physically and emotionally through compassionate, quality care that enables them to lead independent, productive lives. - See more at: http://www.jccany.org/who-we-are/mission/#sthash.EqCm8ANu.dpuf
