$10,000 Goal

Since 2002, Yolo County Children's Alliance (YCCA) has helped ensure everyone in Yolo County can build meaningful ties to their communities. As the county's Child Abuse Prevention Council, we serve over 6,000 families annually through our offices in Woodland, Davis, and our Family Resource Center in West Sacramento. The Family Resource Center serves as a welcoming, compassionate space where all families can thrive, providing multilingual support in English, Spanish, Russian, Farsi, Punjabi, and Dari. Our trauma-informed professionals deliver comprehensive services including housing navigation and eviction prevention, healthcare enrollment, workforce development for youth, and emergency food and refugee support programs. We embrace and support all families, celebrating the diversity that strengthens our community.

Every day, we see how personalized support can transform lives. Through Healthy Families Yolo County™, our nationally-accredited home visitation program, we support parents from pregnancy through their child's third year. One mother's story captures the impact: "My home visitor helped me overcome postpartum depression. I couldn't have done it without her encouragement." This experience reflects countless others we see in our community. As Executive Director Jeneba Lahai observes, "At YCCA, we witness the remarkable resilience of families who, with just a little support, can transform their lives and their children's futures. The strength of our community lies in our ability to support each other."

Your gift helps ensure every family has the resources they need to build a safer, healthier future.
