CAPTAIN Youth and Family Services is the principal advocate for the changing needs of youth and families in Saratoga County. Our mission is to provide services necessary to address those needs through social, educational and prevention programs which encourage personal and social development in teens and families.

We build resilient, emotionally healthy, self-suffi cient families... It’s a simple idea that means so much: emotionally secure families and youth; less violence; a place to stay for runaway or homeless youth; meeting basic needs; in essence, responding to needs wherever they are: schools, the community, and the home...helping families develop the strength to meet the challenges they will face beyond today.
