Cayuga Centers

About

We are a network of services geared to supporting youth, families, and individuals who need help meeting the challenges of life. Our programs evolve with cultural and societal changes. Where we once served the orphaned or abandoned child, we now work with troubled youth and their families. We provide residential placement and treatment foster care. We provide in-home family therapy support and mental health intervention. We provide Medicaid Service Coordination and other services to assist consumers with developmental disabilities and their caregivers. We serve children, families, and individuals who may have diverse challenges and needs from multiple systems. Based in New York State, and continuing our reach around the country, we are Cayuga Centers. We are here to listen to all the voices.
