Mission Statement
On January 10, 1996, the Administration for Children's Services (ACS) was created as the first agency devoted solely to serving children and their families. ACS's mission is to ensure the safety and well-being of New York City children.
As a strategy for helping young people succeed in life, mentoring works. It helps give young people the confidence, resources and skills they need to reach their potential.
Description
Central Mentoring Office
Your abilities and life experience may be of great help to a child or family in a time of need. For young people who are living through particularly challenging times, a stable adult in their lives can be invaluable. ACS is committed to creating and sustaining meaningful and potentially long-lasting relationships between caring adults and youth in foster care.
