The Affirm Health program is a collaboration between The Village Family Services and Providence[EM1] Facey Medical Group to improve the mental health of unhoused LGBTQIA+ youth in San Fernando Valley. It delivers an evidence-based coping skills training intervention to reduce mental health and behavioral risks, while also promoting LGBTQIA+ education among healthcare providers. This initiative supports California’s Master Plan for Kids’ Mental Health by aiming to reduce depression and improve decision-making and coping skills for LGBTQ+ youth.

The Village Family Services' Ending Youth Homelessness program moves transition-aged youth (14 to 24 years) from homelessness to sustainable housing, financial stability and self-sufficiency so that they can create meaningful, safe and fulfilling futures. Our Drop-In Center provides basic needs such as food and showers, support from staff who have exited homelessness, and a variety of training services. Our caseworkers connect youth with appropriate housing solutions, and our shelter facility provides bridge and transitional housing.
