Based in Lancaster, Massachusetts, the Robert F. Kennedy Children's Action Corps is a private nonprofit that operates a broad set of programs across the state aimed at helping children and adolescents cope with past hurts, build self-esteem, and become contributing members of their communities. The organization seeks to keep vulnerable families intact and to keep children safe within their communities; when family stability can't be achieved or is not advisable, it provides a temporary therapeutic living arrangement for the child.

Its services include family-focused clinical therapy, special education, therapeutic residential care, respite services, and adoption. Beyond direct services, the corps advocates for youth at detention hearings, conducts outreach that promotes positive community interaction, and offers educational and skill-building supports. It also participates in community task forces, collaborates with state and other child welfare agencies, and provides professional development opportunities for staff.
