With the nearly 200-year heritage behind it, Northern Rivers Family of Services is a leader in the field of human service agencies by providing innovative, comprehensive and life changing care for over 18,000 children, adults and their families throughout 41 counties in New York State. We are dedicated to helping families where they need it most, in their own homes and communities, unless they need safer more comprehensive care, then we intervene with our network of foster care homes, residential havens and crisis stabilization services.

Northern Rivers and its member agencies Northeast Parent & Child Society, Parsons Child & Family Center and Unlimited Potential, provide help and hope to children who struggle with past abuse, mental health challenges and educational difficulties to nurture and empower them and their families to brighter futures and stronger communities. We also assist adults with impairments who need career training, employment and service navigation through our advocacy programs.
