Child & Family Center is dedicated to helping children, families and adults reach their full potential for becoming caring and responsible adults. Established in 1976 as St. Stephen's Special School, the agency's founders saw a need to assist children with emotional, learning and behavioral problems, by helping their parents learn better ways to parent them. Evolving into the SCV Special Children's Center in 1985, counseling services were added for teenagers and their parents. Now known as the Child & Family Center, the agency has grown into a provider of comprehensive prevention, early intervention, diagnostic evaluation and therapeutic services for children, teens, adults and families who live in the Santa Clarita Valley. Mission: Changing lives and healing relationships by helping people thrive through education, treatment, prevention and advocacy. ??????????- Strengthening families today for stronger communities tomorrow.
