Agency Services

Foster
Placement

Children are placed temporarily in the care of foster families. The loving care of the families they are placed with provide a model for healthy living as well as offer a safe and secure environment. A Coming of Age actively recruits, trains and connects families interested in providing a home to a child in need.

Case Management

Children and families are assigned an advocate that works to meet the individual needs of each child and family they serve. They assist them in negotiating service systems and provide consistency in care.

LGBTQ+
support

A Coming of Age actively recruits homes that are LGBTQ friendly. When needed, children are placed in these homes to ensure all kids are provided a safe and nurturing environment.

Behavioral Health Services

Psychological assessments are conducted for children being served. Based on findings, referrals are provided to therapy. When children come into the organization and are currently receiving psychiatric care, a plan is established to maintain involvement in care.

Medical, Vision & Dental Services

Medical and dental exams are provided to kids on a semi-annual basis, while dental services are provided annually.

Reproductive Health

Teen clients are provided with information, education and resources to make informed decisions about their health and sexuality.

Alcohol and Other Drugs Support

Direct referrals and support are provided to children who present with alcohol and other drug issues

Developmental Supports

Clients with special needs are connected to the Inland Regional Center (IRC) for services.

Transitional Support

Supports are provided to youth age 18-21 in an effort to transition them into independent living. The youth can participate in this voluntary program, allowing them to stay in the foster family home under an agreement that they will build the skills and resources needed to transition into an independent living situation. In this arrangement, the foster family shifts from providing protection to these children to providing them with the mentorship needed to be successful in life.

Social Skills Development

The agency provides group activities to nurture social skills development. Holiday events are hosted twice a year.

Foster Parent Trainings

Trainings are provided to foster parents to equip them with the skills necessary to be agents of change needed by children.
