About us
We're dedicated to securing the safety and well-being of the children and families entrusted to our care.
Founded in 1846, Seamen’s Society for Children and Families, a private New York nonprofit organization, is dedicated to securing the safety and well-being of the children and families entrusted to our care.
Each day, we serve over 1,250 children and over 500 families.
Our programs protect and care for our communities’ most vulnerable children, while strengthening families living with mental illness, alcohol addiction, substance abuse, domestic/intimate partner violence, and other circumstances which can threaten a child’s safety and future.
We work in a trauma-informed, compassionate manner to meet the needs of the diverse communities we serve.
