What is the SafeGuards Foster Care Program? 

The SafeGuards program is a unique, full continuum of foster care, designed to treat sexualized children and adolescents who cannot remain with or return to their legal family.  SafeGuards Foster Care is a local agency that provides help to many children in Eastern Pennsylvania.
Our program is distinguishable from other programs because our agency strives to help children succeed and overcome severe obstacles in order to become responsible members of the community.  The SafeGuards program emphasizes accountability and promotes a youth’s desire to develop social, educational and emotional skills for future suceess. 

SafeGuards youth have reported a wide range of neglectful and abusive experiences.  SafeGuards utilizes a family living situation in order to assist youth in developing healthy relationships with both adults and with their peer groups.  Constructive role modeling by foster parents is a cornerstone of the agency.
