Our Residential Services program at the Casa Kids Campus in San Marcos provides a homelike atmosphere in cozy cottages located on 11.4 acres with expansive outdoor areas for play, exercise, or simply a walk in the fresh air. Youth age prenatal to 18 years old who have been traumatized by severe child abuse or neglect come into our 24/7 residential treatment program. Each Casa Kid receives comprehensive trauma-informed care tailored toward to their individual needs, while also ensuring they have as many healthy childhood experiences as possible. Our transitional housing program, New Directions, provides housing and Independent Living Skills training and supplementary services for youth (ages 18–25 and their children) who are transitioning out of the foster care system into independent living. Each youth served is provided with a fully furnished apartment located in San Diego County and receives rent payment support enabling them to learn budgeting skills and adapt to maintaining their own stable housing.
