We've been serving Southern California since 1902, and we're here for good.

When individuals are healthy, supported and have a deep-rooted sense of wellbeing, communities flourish. With a focus on under-served populations, Sycamores impacts over 18,000 vulnerable children, youth and families in under-served communities with programs, services and support. We believe this starts by giving people exactly what they need, however unique that looks.
Building Hope for Youth in Crisis

Discover how Sycamores is transforming lives in our 2023-2024 Impact Report

Sycamores recently held a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of renovations at its El Nido campus, where two new Children’s Crisis Programs will soon provide urgent mental health care for Los Angeles County’s children and teens. With few youth-specific crisis services available in the County, these programs will fill a critical gap in support for vulnerable young people.
