Lincoln Families

Lincoln is a mental health organization with 13 programs that disrupt cycles of trauma & poverty, empowering kids & families to build strong futures.

Since our founding in 1883 as the first racially integrated orphanage in Northern California, Lincoln Families has impacted the lives of children and families through evolving programs. Today, we provide preventative, individualized and comprehensive support services with a focus on three core areas that disrupt cycles of poverty and trauma:

Education:
Addressing obstacles that impact academic attendance and achievement

Family:
Strengthening stability and creating permanency

Well-Being:
Improving resiliency and wellness

How We Do It
Every day, in communities throughout our region, Lincoln Families is providing real solutions to the unique issues our children, youth and families face. At Lincoln, we go where children and youth are, helping them to develop skills to stay at home and in school. Teams of skilled and diverse staff work together with youth and families to utilize their strengths and build a plan for success. With this critical support, our children, youth and families thrive and build bold futures. Only Lincoln Families has a culturally relevant, adaptive approach that meets the needs of children and families. Our multi-generational model sets a new standard of support that changes lives.
