Helping Youth in Crisis
Foster care is in crisis. Across the country, too many at-risk youth have nowhere to call home. These are some of the hardest placements: teens who’ve experienced deep hurt and are often placed in group homes or psychiatric facilities simply because there’s nowhere else to go.
The need is overwhelming—and while they wait, many of these youth receive no consistent care or support. They’re not getting what they need. We’re losing them. And we shouldn’t be.
At Chosen, we believe connection is the turning point. We partner with caregivers, professionals, and systems to surround these youth with compassion, consistency, and trauma-informed support—so they can begin to heal and move toward a better future.
Client Outcomes
At Chosen, we prioritize results that align with our mission. Results are woven into our model of care. We measure success not by what we gain, but by what we contribute.

TRAUMA-REPONSIVE INTERVENTION
Our Program Offers Hope
Chosen helps youths without a permanent placement know they are valued and cherished. Our personnel coaches engage with these young people, not just as therapists, but as partners to help them build attachment and start a journey towards healing. Coaches are going to the youth, wherever their temporary placement is, to ensure they receive the trauma-responsive intervention they need and deserve.
life changing & lifesaving,
promoting healthy relational connections
This is paramount to effectively address the impact of abuse, neglect, grief and loss.
When a placement is identified for these youth, Chosen’s staff “follow the child,” helping the transition to a family, ensuring stability and higher success rates. This essential component is critical to help youth heal in safe, loving, and permanent relationships.
We want to help youth thrive both now and in the future. The courts are taking notice, sending more referrals for our At-Risk Youth program every single month. This program is currently available in Florida, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina with future plans to expand nationwide.
Let’s give these kids a connection and a place to call home.
