Since our beginnings as an orphanage in downtown Los Angeles, Five Acres has been committed to strengthening children and families and empowering them within their communities. Now as one of the county’s oldest child behavioral health organizations, today we strive for prevention and permanency: a safe, healthy, loving family solution for every child. We offer a full continuum of care for children and families, including community-based mental health and resource support, foster care and adoption, and short term therapeutic residential care.
