Good Shepherd Services is a leading youth development
and family service agency that serves over 18,000 program participants a
year. We give vulnerable youth in New York City the opportunity to take
ownership of their future, making a difference today and for the next
generation.
Focusing on high-need communities In Brooklyn and the
Bronx, we provide a broad array of individual, family and school-based
services to prevent youth from becoming disconnected from family, school
and society. We also help those who come to us already disengaged find
hope and motivation to reconnect with their community. When young people
cannot stay in their families, we continue to provide a safety net of
superior quality foster care and residential programs, as we have since
1857.
Good Shepherd’s programs succeed because of the unique
way in which we work:
-
We have a profound belief in the strengths inherent in
youth and the ability of individuals and families to transform
themselves.
-
We surround youth and families with the services and
supports they need.
-
We employ a rigorous business approach that stresses
partnerships and makes the very most of both public and private
resources.
