Sweeney Youth Homes' mission is to stop the generational cycle of abuse by helping the whole family if at all possible. We offer counseling for the parents, the victim in the family, and the resident. We also teach the residents about their future responsibilities in becoming an adult toward their children.

We provide residential treatment for emotionally disturbed adolescents ages 12 through 18. We are licensed to provide services for 6 children per home and presently have 4 homes throughout Santa Barbara County. We accept residents placed through the Department of Probation, Department of Children's Services, the Department of Mental Health and Adoptions.

We hire and train staff members who consistently work toward helping the residents to be the best they can be in whatever positive behavior they choose. Each house has a Child Care Supervisor and Child Care Workers. We have on staff two licensed clinical psychologists, licensed MFT's, LCSW's and master degree interns. We have two psychiatrists that provide psychiatric and medication evaluations. Therapy consists of discussing why they are in a group home, what they can do to change their life and how to achieve results.
