For 30 years, we've connected individuals currently or previously in foster care with dedicated volunteer therapists, empowering both to thrive.

2024 is A Home Within's 30th Anniversary! Throughout the year we're celebrating the strength that comes from our extraordinary history, and enlisting our community in building the future.

If you're a therapist and can offer one free hour of therapy each week to an individual with experience in foster care, we invite you to join the A Home Within community! Volunteers gain access to ongoing virtual clinical consultation, continuing education, and a variety of individualized professional development opportunities.

It is one of the most rewarding experiences of my clinical career, and now, more than ever, the best antidote to helplessness in the face of social injustice I have found.
- A Home Within Volunteer

I am so thankful for this amazing program that has, and does, change my life. My therapist says what we don't treat we repeat, I'm not repeating any of these cycles.
- A Home Within Client

We provide open-ended, individual psychotherapy-free of charge-to current and former foster youth. If you've experienced foster care and are interested in receiving one free hour of therapy each week from an A Home Within-affiliated therapist, we encourage you to learn more about our network and services.

At a Glance

16,000 hours of free therapy provided each year.

Over 600,000 youth in foster care nationwide need access to mental healthcare.

Over 500 therapists in 20 chapters across 10 states.

The A3 Miles Hall Call Center is named in honor of Miles Hall and the hundreds of other Contra Costans who face the challenge of a mental health incident, as well as the added jeopardy of getting the wrong help or no help at all.

Miles was a 23-year-old Black man who was tragically killed by law enforcement while suffering a severe mental health incident. Before the incident, Miles' mother Taun, found there were no places for him to go to get help unless he was a danger to himself or others, or gravely ill.

After Miles' death, Taun advocated for system-wide change to prevent unnecessary suffering and loss of life.

Recognizing the enormous need for a system to help people in need and prevent mental health incidents from becoming emergencies, A3 was created.
