New Alternatives

New Alternatives, incorporated (NAI) is a private, nonprofit California corporation that was founded in San Diego, California in 1978. The mission of new Alternatives is to provide culturally competent and family focused services to child victims of abuse, neglect and abandonment. The populations served by this agency are some of San Diego and Orange Counties most vulnerable children. These victims frequently suffer from a variety of emotional and psychological disorders due to family histories of child abuse, substance abuse, family violence and mental illness. With treatment, many of these children will be able to break generational cycles of child abuse, substance abuse, family violence, homelessness and poverty.

 

Children have the right to grow and develop as happy, successful and contributing individuals and at New Alternatives they are given that chance. New Alternatives provides a various amount of programs that help those in need. They also have parent education, transportation, school programs as well as many others.
 

New Alternatives strives in fulfilling the dreams, which with out them would never come true, of children and their family’s everyday. They have the ability to give these children opportunities that they would not otherwise have the experience of being a part of.
