Excelsior Youth Centers
For more than 43 years, Excelsior has strengthened and educated at-risk youth and their families. Each child and each family has a different story, but they have one thing in common – trauma. Excelsior’s youth have experienced too much trauma in their short lives, stemming from any number of things, including abuse and exploitation, gang violence, substance abuse, or mental illness. Specializing in a wide range of behavioral healthcare services, Excelsior achieves lasting success for youth by strengthening the entire family with innovative treatments and solutions. We give young people the tools, as well as the courage, to strive for a different and better tomorrow.
