Clinical Services

Healing New York's team of highly skilled licensed therapists provides trauma-focused services to children and families through our Therapeutic Supervised Visitation Program and our Trauma Recovery Program; supports child welfare professionals through our Crisis Debriefing and Bereavement Program; and trains emerging social workers through our Student Intern Program.

The Training Institute

Healing New York's Training Institute is dedicated to equipping children, parents, and professionals with the necessary knowledge and tools to help keep children safe from abuse and neglect. We believe in the importance of research and programming that produces results. All of our trainings, services, and materials are research-informed or evidence-based.

Advocacy

Since its founding in 1875, Healing New York has been in the forefront of advocacy efforts for laws and policies that seek a safer and healthier environment for all children. We engage in advocacy efforts on a broad variety of fronts, including legislative advocacy, litigation support, and public awareness campaigns.
