The Center for Children & Young Adults (CCYA) is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization that houses youth and young adults ages 12-20 who have been abused, abandoned and or neglected by their caregivers. CCYA is more than a youth shelter or congregate group home, it is a youth development program that provides a best place for youth to live, heal and thrive at a time in their lives when they are most vulnerable and in need of support.
