Our program is designed to support the entire family system, because we know it takes a village to raise our kids. We offer counseling services for the foster care children, caregivers, and the birth family. We work with older kids that suffer from addiction and substance abuse.

Through LOVE, we HEAL! Our counseling program will help foster care youth rewrite and repurpose their trials and tribulations so they can find acceptance for the present and find freedom from the past. In time, LOVE will HEAL all wounds.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
Love Heals Youth is making efforts to fulfill the needs of the kids based on Maslow's Hierarchy. We know that human motivation is based on the pursuit of different levels of needs. By fulfilling the basic needs, the foster youth will be able to move on to the more advanced needs and finally thrive as they develop and begin to realize their potential.
