At A Home Within, we understand the profound impact a single, lasting relationship has in the life of someone impacted by foster care.
There is no time limit. No age limit. No red tape. Youth choose their therapist and continue “for as long as it takes.”
A Home Within provides transformative mental health care to foster youth
while building the field of the future.
We don’t depend on government grants or insurance company contracts. We don’t wait for the system to provide youth what they deserve. We transcend policy, bureaucracy, politics, and economic cycles.
In its first 30 years, A Home Within grew to a nationwide network of volunteer therapists who each make a career-long commitment to providing free therapy to foster youth and alumni.
Over two decades of results show that A Home Within clients experience reduced symptoms and suffering, and report improved relationships at home, at work, and in the community. A Home Within creates healing and hope through lasting therapeutic relationships.
We serve nearly 700 young people nationwide, and are adding 300 new volunteers to our network each year.
Our clients tell us: The relationship is the medicine.
Our volunteers tell us: I get more than I give.
