Our Mission: Building Brighter Futures

Oakland Family Services is a private, nonprofit human service organization serving the area since 1921. With three convenient locations in Oakland County, we offer a continuum of prevention, education, and treatment services that span the human life cycle, enrich the lives of children, strengthen families, and rebuild lives.

  • Prevention

    Providing safe, loving homes through foster care and adoption. Building parenting skills and ensuring children develop on track through Early On and Parents as Teachers.

  • Education

    Preparing students for kindergarten and beyond through affordable, accessible preschool and childcare at our Children’s Learning Centers.

  • Treatment

    Empowering clients to overcome mental health and substance use disorders through Day One. Treating adolescents with severe emotional distress and supporting their families through Specialized Services for Youth.

“It takes special individuals to make such a profound impact on kids at this age.” 

— Pia, Children’s Learning Center Parent
