Cayuga Centers

Cayuga Centers At Cayuga Centers, our mission has remained steadfast: to help children and families, no matter what. Everyone is welcome here.

Since 1852, Cayuga Centers has cared for vulnerable children, families, and individuals. While we work to keep families together, we provide them with psychological, medical, and educational support. As a nonprofit with 170 years of caring for children and families, we always put their needs first. Our organization offers a holistic and data-informed approach to social services by breaking the cyc

le of trauma and providing a bundle, multisystemic technique to child and family services. We tend to the specific needs of each family by creating a tailored service plan for each youth and by meeting families where they are - we do this by involving the entire community surrounding a child, offering in-home therapy, 24/7 on-call support, a treatment team, and in-depth coaching and training for foster parents. We believe this approach creates an environment that allows the foster youth to heal and for families to grow stronger. We implement evidence-based treatment programs that successfully address youth and family life issues. We are a nationally accredited nonprofit human services agency headquartered in Auburn, NY, with services throughout the US. To donate, become a foster parent, or learn more about Cayuga Centers’ competitive salaries, hybrid schedule, generous paid time off, and robust benefits, visit our website at cayugacenters.org.

Every July, we set aside the fourth Sunday of the month to celebrate the often-overlooked heroes of society: parents. Whether a family is led by two parents, a single parent, or another guardian, these figures are crucial in providing financial support and nurturing emotional growth and development in their children. Parents are constantly making sacrifices to better their children’s lives, and on this day, we encourage everyone to express their gratitude and appreciation. Happy Parents’ Day!

This Father’s Day, we celebrate all the dads, father figures, mentors, and male caregivers who show up, support, and shape lives every day.

At Cayuga Centers, we know that men play a vital role in the lives of children—especially in foster care. Despite outdated myths, men make incredible foster parents, bringing stability, compassion, and leadership to youth who need it most.

To every father figure helping a child feel safe and seen: thank you. 💙
