TLC provides comprehensive quality foster care and adoption services, residentially-based services, special education services, transition age youth housing and counseling.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TLC Child & Family Services (TLC) is a private, non-profit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing permanence, shelter, education, guidance, emotional healing and support to children, families and young adults. A variety of expertly structured environments are provided so children can realize a richer life experience and discover hidden potential, developing character and self-identity that is positive and productive in the community.

  • Foster Family/Adoption Agency:Foster Family Agency: The Foster Family Agency (FFA) provides treatment foster care and foster/adopt services for children between the ages of birth to eighteen. The foster children, including sibling groups, may exhibit a moderate degree of emotional and/or behavioral disturbances. The FFA's social workers in this program provide support, consultation, and adoption services to foster parents. The social worker team approach affords a wide measure of flexibility in meeting the needs of children in unique situations. Homes are located in both city and rural settings in Sonoma, Marin, Lake, Napa and Mendocino Counties. Referrals are from all regions of California.THP Program: TLC works to ensure that all foster youth and former foster youth (ages 16 - 25) have the opportunity to experience a safe, supported transition from foster care. Through the housing program, along with an academic enrichment program, counseling and community education, youth are helped to gain the skills to live independently and succeed on their own. Transitional housing programs give young adults the opportunity to learn critical life skills from trained professional staff.Adoption Services: TLC offers adoption services for children in the foster care system and from birth parents. Home studies, adoption planning, parent training seminars and support groups, and post adoption services are provided.

    Expenses $2,395,632 · Grants $571,166

  • Journey Academy:Residential Treatment Program is an intensive co-educational treatment program for adolescents. Opening in 1975, TLC's residential program continues to provide safety, shelter, and support to adolescents. TLC promotes family involvement by including parents and siblings, relatives or significant other persons in the therapeutic process and every effort is made to achieve family reconciliation and reunification. Located in rural Sonoma County, two high level group homes serve 16 youth with a wide range of psychological and emotional needs. The homes maintain superior standards and are accredited nationally by the Joint Commission.Journey High School. This California Certified Nonpublic School is appropriate for any 9th - 12th grade student who needs special educational services. A comprehensive curriculum is tailored to eachstudent instructional need. The curriculum meets state and local graduation requirements.
