Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Since 1888, Five Acres has been supporting children and families within their communities. Today, we partner with families across Southern California to create a permanent, safe, and healthy environment for every child. We offer a full range of behavioral health services at each of our many clinics, via telehealth, or by coming to you. We also offer comprehensive inpatient care for children who need 24/7 care.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Five Acres - The Boys and Girls' Aid Society of Los Angeles County ("Five Acres") is a behavioral health agency ensuring every child in its care has a safe, healthy & permanent family solution through advocacy, prevention & evidenced-based services.

  • Our Community-Based Services keep families safe and together by focusing on the parent/child relationship through family communication and problem solving. We provide behavioral support, skill building, and counseling to children and youth who are experiencing risk factors or stressors that cause disruptions in their home, school, relationships, and communities.Through early intervention and effective prevention assessments, we can identify factors that strengthen personal control to avoid negative outcomes. We also provide support to parents, caregivers, and families to improve relationships, develop skill sets, and cope with symptoms in a positive and safe way.These outpatient services, which treat youth to adults of all ages for a span of three to twenty-one, offer personalized treatment sessions. Our services are offered in English, Spanish, and ASL. Services are accessible via telehealth, at one of our offices, in-home for intensive care, or wherever is convenient.

    Expenses $13,854,071 · Grants $9,116

  • Our Residential Services are structured to serve children ages six through eighteen years old who are experiencing a higher level of emotional and behavioral challenges that cannot be supported safely within a home environment and require around-the-clock supervision. We provide mental health services in a safe, nurturing, residential-based setting for clients to stabilize these high-risk behaviors to successfully transition back into a home setting.The program focuses on family-centered care within a goal-oriented framework. Each client's history is considered as a factor for treatment. Experiences are designed to be trauma-informed, therapeutic, and planned to meet the diagnosed needs of the client and their family members.

    Expenses $12,984,928 · Grants $587,319

  • Our Permanency Services help families navigate the foster care or adoption journey with the goal of reunifying with their children or transitioning them to adoptive families, whichever will provide the best outcomes. Our success rate is due to combining research evidence alongside clinical expertise to deliver effective, positive outcomes individualized to your family's needs. Foster care services typically span one to two years, and adoption services span between three months to four years, however, our in-house providers offer support for as long as needed.

    Expenses $4,991,048 · Grants $777,702

  • Five Acres Transitional Shelter Care Facility (TSCF) provides short-term shelter and care for girls and boys ages 6-14 who are in crisis and experiencing the trauma of being detained from their parent(s)/guardian or have suffered a placement disruption. The immediate priority for the TSCF program is to provide care, comfort and stability. The TSCF program will provide short-term care until children are placed with a relative, a foster home or group home, or in some instances, are returned to their parents.Private Health Care: Our Private Healthcare Services provide intensive mental health services using a team-based approach to achieve crisis stabilization for children who need a higher level of outpatient services.Initial services are short-term (usually four months long), and clients are assigned to a three-person team that works to stabilize them enough to transition back to their health plan for long-term mental health care as needed.These intensive outpatient services, which treat ages five to twenty-one years old, incorporate data-driven approaches and evidence-based practices to each personalized treatment session.

    Expenses $3,556,695 · Grants $85 · Revenue $3,650,356

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
