Program accomplishments

• Early Childhood Education Services:Recognized by experts as an effective child abuse and neglect prevention strategy, Allies provides comprehensive, trauma-informed, culturally responsive early education programming focused on social-emotional development, designed to prepare children and their families who face a range of stressors (poverty, child welfare system involvement, special needs and disabilities) for kindergarten and beyond. Research consistently shows that high-quality early education is among the most effective strategies for preventing child abuse and neglect. Allies serves more than 300 children (ages 0-5) every year in nurturing environments at our Early Education Center, through our network of licensed home-based education providers, and in enrolled families' homes, with priority placement for children in foster care and families experiencing homelessness.Allies maintains a low staff-to-child ratio in our inclusive, bilingual classrooms to ensure every child's healthy social-emotional, cognitive, and physical development. Allies' programs are data-driven and designed with the flexibility to be responsive to individual child and family needs, exceeding requirements set by funders and oversight bodies.And because Allies knows parent/caregiver engagement is imperative to children's long-term success, Allies nurtures relationships with families, partnering with them to support their children's healthy development through home visits, parent-teacher conferences, parenting groups, and volunteer opportunities.Children and families enrolled in Allies' Early Education programs also have access to extensive individualized supports, including early childhood mental health services, pediatric health consultations, disability screenings and advocacy, community events, and more.Allies is able to provide this level of quality by strategically layering and combining private dollars and government contracts, including Early Head Start, the California Department of Social Services, and the USDA's Child and Adult Care Food Program.
  Expenses $10,041,973 · grants $3,033,541
• Comprehensive, Integrated Services:Because every child and family's circumstances are unique, Allies invests in providing an array of vital, multidisciplinary supports tailored to meet the individual needs of children and families across all programs. Because of Allies' extensive experience working with children who have experienced trauma and the knowledge that birth through age five is a crucial window of brain development-Allies' team of social workers and therapists provides infant and early childhood mental health services to hundreds of children and their families each year, helping heal the wounds of childhood trauma and allowing children to build trusting relationships with nurturing adults.Through this integrated early childhood mental health model, Allies provides trauma screenings and mental health services, including dyadic therapy, psychoeducation groups, mental health consultation, and client-centered advocacy. We aim to help caregivers regulate their emotional state so they can form a secure attachment with their child and buffer the impact of trauma.Additionally, Allies provides children and families with semiannual disabilities screenings and year-round advocacy, pediatric health consultations, dental and vision screenings, nutrition education, parenting groups, and more. We work closely with a network of community partner agencies (including Upward Bound House, Safe Place for Youth, Good Shepherd Shelter, Venice Family Clinic, St. Joseph Center, Harvest Home, Claris Health, A Child's Dream, and Miriam's House) to ensure families are connected to stable housing, medical care, and other essential supports.
  Expenses $1,889,286 · grants $703,970
• Child Welfare Services: Since our inception, Allies' priority population has been and continues to be children who are involved with the child welfare system. Allies' Foster Care and Adoption program-partially funded by LA County Department of Children and Family Services (LA DCFS) and strengthened through the merger with Extraordinary Families - works to break the devastating cycles associated with aging out of foster care without a permanent home, including homelessness, poverty, and incarceration. The merger expanded our permanency services infrastructure, recruitment efforts, and caregiver supports, adding service sites in Koreatown and Long Beach.We seek affirming, nurturing, well-equipped families for children and youth in the foster care system, especially youth who are disproportionately represented, including older children and teens, sibling sets, children of color, and LGBTQ+ youth. Allies recruits, trains, and certifies foster families who are driven by a desire to ensure that every child has the childhood they deserve. Allies' social workers and licensed clinicians provide extensive training and support to equip foster parents with the skills necessary to parent children who have experienced trauma, and to ensure parents are ready to embrace and support the children who need them.Allies is committed to keeping families together whenever possible. Through our Family Preservation program and related child welfare programming, Allies partners with families who have been referred to us by LA DCFS due to substantiated allegations of abuse or neglect, as well as other vulnerable families in the community. Families access a range of services aimed at healing and strengthening relationships to keep children in their birth/first home-when possible and in the child's best interest-and prevent the need for further child welfare system involvement.A recent review by LA DCFS showed that 96% of families who participated in Allies' Family Preservation program did not have repeated engagement with the child welfare system. These outcomes are a result of Allies' multidisciplinary team (overseen by licensed clinicians) addressing issues related to trauma, domestic violence, substance dependence, and parenting through in-home assessments and counseling, child and family mental health services, and intensive case management. Allies also works with families to build protective factors-characteristics proven to reduce the risk of child maltreatment-and offers family activities and community events that provide critical support by reducing social isolation, building resilience, and providing direct and concrete resources that reduce stress.
  Expenses $1,260,242 · grants $97,627
• Youth and Young Adult Services:For nearly four decades, Allies has championed children and youth of all ages through its foster care and child welfare work, recognizing that the risks of homelessness, poverty, and isolation do not disappear when a young person turns 18. Integrating with Extraordinary Families has deepened this capacity. Allies has also been serving young parents for over 30 years, prioritizing enrollment of teen parents in our early education programs.Unlimited Possibilities for Youth (UP4Youth) is a structured program serving young people who have aged out of or are transitioning from the foster care system. It provides mentorship, coaching, and connections to employment, education, and housing stability, meeting young adults where they are and offering both intensive engagement and lighter-touch support depending on individual need. Prior to the merger, the program had already been built and refined by Extraordinary Families over the years, and it reflects a depth of experience with older youth that aligns directly with Allies' own strategic direction. Together, we are building a true continuum of care-one that follows children and young people not just through early childhood and family crises, but into the adolescent and young adult years when the stakes remain high and consistent support can still change their trajectory.Allies Village:Allies recognizes the severe shortage of housing and services designed specifically for unhoused families, particularly those led by young people who were previously in foster care. Having secured land use entitlements from the City of Los Angeles last fiscal year, Allies Village will be a community of 14 residential units, safe play areas, and green spaces adjacent to Allies' Early Education Center, offering stable housing and comprehensive on-site support, including on-campus early education, mental health care, and life skills coaching, for former foster youth and their young children. Allies is moving forward with project development and capital campaign planning.
