Youth Advocate Services (YAS) is a Columbus, Ohio-based health and human services organization founded in 1978 as Ohio’s first treatment foster care program. It provides foster care, behavioral health, and Franklin County Early Intervention services that include counseling, service coordination, and community and education support, all offered at no cost to the families served. The organization aims to address the evolving needs of Central Ohio families by delivering integrated supports that help youth and families access essential services within the local community. YAS operates within the broader human services sector, focusing on preventive and therapeutic interventions to stabilize families and connect them with appropriate resources. In addition to its core programs, the organization remains a longstanding local provider with a presence in central Ohio, offering services designed to reduce barriers to care for children and families. A recent development in the sector involves Cadence Care Network’s acquisition of YAS, reflecting changes in the local landscape of youth and family services.
