Northeast Center for Youth & Families, Inc.

Profile

Since we first opened our doors over 40 years ago, NCYF has been committed to providing innovative, high-quality programs and services to children and their families. We have a long history of doing just that. We serve kids that other organizations won’t and offer a variety of programs to meet the wide-ranging needs of our clients.

Here are a few of the ways we stand apart:
•We're experienced - NCYF was founded in 1972 and we have a lot of experience under our belt working with children and families in need.
•Our programs have been designed and developed to directly meet the needs of the children and families we serve. You are our top priority.
•Our skilled staff have years of training and experience in working with children from the most troubled backgrounds.
•All of our staff are trained to provide care that is respectful of an individual’s trauma background.
•Our residential homes accept children and adolescents with the most difficult issues, not just those with less challenging problems.
•Our foster care program, Safe Passages, also works extensively with children with highly problematic behavior.
•NCYF is strongly committed to environmental sustainability – green initiatives are incorporated into all aspects of our operations and programs.
•The Tri-County Schools (TCS) has a strong track record of success: •Our no-suspension policy means that your child won’t be suspended for bad behavior at school. Instead, we’ll work with him or her within the school to address the behavior and find a solution that helps them succeed.
•The majority of TCS graduates pass the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) and 70% of our graduates go on to college.
