Welcome to SVS

SVS is one of the oldest childcare agencies in New York City. Founded in 1869 as a refuge for homeless Brooklyn newsboys, its services have grown as the concerns facing society's most vulnerable have grown. Our mission, to serve needy children and families, remains unchanged.

Today, as one of the city's largest and most respected family care agencies, SVS offers a broad array of services including foster care, group homes, a program for children with AIDS and other medically fragile conditions, a licensed mental health and chemical dependency clinic, and services for the developmentally disabled.
