C-Change: Transforming the Lives of Sexually Exploited Youth

Designed for Bay Area youth who have experienced commercial sexual exploitation, this program utilizes a multidisciplinary team to build long-term, trusting relationships through therapy and care coordination. Staff help participants access safe housing, healthcare, and education while supporting them to build autonomy, self-advocacy, and personal safety.

Outpatient Program

The Outpatient Program serves youth (ages 2–21) and families dealing with complex trauma, including abuse, neglect, community violence, or system involvement. Using a team-based approach with shared caseloads, providers deliver collaborative, client-driven individual and family therapy, case management, and care coordination.
