Based in Sacramento, California, Sierra Forever Families operates as a nonprofit focused on supporting youth and families through foster care and adoption-related services. In 2017, it merged with Stanford Youth Solutions to form Stanford Sierra Youth & Families (SSYF), a single organization that serves the region. The new entity emphasizes ensuring children have access to loving, safe, and stable family environments as they grow into healthy adults. SSYF offers a continuum of care designed to help youth and families address challenges together and to connect youth in foster care with permanent, loving families. Its programs cover family advocacy and support, behavioral and mental health services, juvenile justice intervention, mentoring, foster care and adoption services, and pre- and post-adoption supports. The organization supports the entire family through professional treatment and compassionate care, with the aim that youths thrive at home, in school, and within the community.
