We are JCCA
We help abused, neglected and traumatized children heal physically and emotionally through compassionate, quality care. Our 37 programs include foster care, residential treatment facilities, mental health services, case management, education programs and special services for children who have been the victims of sexual abuse. We serve New York’s neediest and most vulnerable children and families to insure that their safety, permanency and well-being leads to a life of stability and promise.
A Message From the CEO to JCCA Staff
Thinking about Las Vegas
Our hearts go out to the families who lost loved ones, and we send courage to those who are healing from their injuries and the entire Las Vegas community.
We know that even those who have escaped physical harm have suffered trauma that will be difficult to overcome.
