St.

Charles began as a boys home with over 50 acres of land for young males to work and play. While the campus has changed over the years, it still offers teenage boys and girls a peaceful and structured environment for renewal, learning, and personal development. In addition to its 84th Street campus, St. Charles has locations throughout Milwaukee, Waukesha, Kenosha, and Dane Counties in Wisconsin. In order to deliver programming as conveniently as possible, St. Charles often provides services in clients’ homes or their neighborhoods. Today, the organization employs over 250 professionals who are making a positive difference in the lives of more than 1,000 youth, adults, and families, annually.

Every child deserves a place to call home.

Through our Treatment Foster Care (TFC) program, we match children with foster families across southeastern Wisconsin to build a connection designed to last.

Our team stands by your family every step of the way, with trainings, resources and support for everyone in your home. Learn more about our Treatment Foster Care program and find upcoming virtual information sessions at:

Welcoming a child into your home brings new relationships, experiences, and responsibilities that extend beyond the foster parent.

At St. Charles Treatment Foster Care, we recognize that supporting a child means supporting the entire family.

That's why our approach includes everyone in the household, from foster parents and biological children to extended family members.

Through specialized training, support groups, and family events, we help families build the connections and confidence they need to navigate treatment foster care together.

Because when the whole family feels supported, children have a stronger foundation for stability, healing, and growth. 💙

At St. Charles Treatment Foster Care, we believe that finding the right foster family means more than finding an available home.

It means taking the time to understand each child's unique experiences, needs, and strengths, while also recognizing what each prospective foster family has to offer.

That's why we approach every match with care and intention, bringing together children and families with the goal of building lasting connections and creating the stability that children need to heal, grow, and thrive.

Because foster care isn't just about opening your home. It's about creating a place where a child can truly belong.

You don't have to have all the answers to become a foster parent.

Opening your home to a child who has experienced trauma is a meaningful commitment, and it's natural to have questions about what that responsibility might look like.

At St. Charles Treatment Foster Care, we make sure you're never left to figure it out alone.

From specialized training and thoughtful matching to 24/7 access to our team, we provide the guidance and resources foster families need to navigate challenges, build connections, and create stable, nurturing homes.

You'll also become part of a community of experienced foster parents who understand the journey firsthand and are ready to walk alongside you.

You bring the willingness to care. We'll bring the support to help you succeed.

St. Charles recently hosted a basketball camp for youth in our CYFS services at our on-campus gymnasium.

Youth had the opportunity to sharpen their skills, get active, and connect with peers and staff in a supportive environment.

We believe that recreation opportunities are an important part of helping young people build positive competencies that they can carry with them beyond our programs.

Thank you to the Greater Milwaukee Foundation for providing the funding to make this event possible!

Another unforgettable Safe Summer is in the books!

On July 18, our campus came alive with laughter, games, food, music, and hundreds of community members coming together to celebrate the start of summer. From horseback riding and flower pot painting to bingo, obstacle courses, and photo booth memories, there was something for everyone to enjoy!

Beyond the fun, Safe Summer is about connecting youth and families with the incredible organizations that make Milwaukee stronger. Through our community resource fair, attendees explored educational opportunities, youth programs, behavioral health services, recreation, and other valuable supports available throughout the year.

A huge thank you to our community partners, volunteers, staff, food truck vendors, the Milwaukee Police Department, and everyone who joined us to make this year's event such a success. Together, we're building stronger connections, creating brighter futures, and helping ensure every young person has the resources they need to thrive.

We can't wait to see you next summer!

We are grateful to the Wisconsin Freemasons (https://wimasons.org/) for their generous donation of four Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) to St. Charles Youth and Family Services.

These life-saving devices will help strengthen the safety of our facilities and enhance our ability to respond in the event of a medical emergency. The donation reflects a shared commitment to protecting the health and well-being of the youth, families, staff, and community members who walk through our doors each day.

Community partnerships like this make a meaningful difference, and we are honored by the Wisconsin Freemasons' investment in the safety of those we serve.

Thank you for helping us create a safer, stronger community.

Access to positive, structured activities can make a lasting difference in a young person’s life.

Thanks to a $10,000 grant from the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, St. Charles Youth and Family Services will be able to expand youth recreation opportunities, including kickboxing, basketball camps, and community recreation center memberships!

These experiences help build confidence, strengthen social connections, and provide healthy outlets for growth.

We are very grateful for the investment in the youth that will enable them to develop long-term, health-focused habits!

This past week, we had the opportunity to bring families together for our Treatment Residential Program's Spring Celebration!

The event was about celebrating our residential youth and their support systems -- there were games, prizes, and a provided meal!

At the end of the event, our Youth received a hand-crafted Easter basket filled with goodies.

We’re proud of our residential youth, and always excited to create moments to celebrate their success!

While the dithering Wisconsin weather can’t decide if it’s still Winter or Spring, youth in St. Charles’ Residential Treatment Program are preparing for this year’s Garden of Hope.

Inside one of the classrooms, an indoor propagation station has been set up to create controlled growing environments where seeds can successfully sprout. Using seed-start trays, humidity domes, controlled soil compositions, and special grow lights, residential youth are learning the science behind germination.

During Earth Day on April 22, students and staff will transfer the plants to the outdoor plant beds to kick-off the new season of the Garden of Hope!
