Sawtelle Home

Sawtelle Children’s Homes

YCS Sawtelle Homes provide intensive behavioral interventions for children, ages 5-21, with developmental and intellectual disabilities (including autism and co-occurring behavioral and/or mental health challenges in a natural, home-like setting.

Loving, often overwhelmed, families turn to YCS when they are no longer able to manage their
children’s defiant, aggressive or self-injurious behaviors. Sawtelle Homes give family members peace of mind knowing that their children are learning how to manage their behaviors in a safe, and nurturing environment while they acquire the daily life and social skills necessary to be part of their communities.

Children have their own bedrooms, share family-style meals with staff and enjoy  one-on-one or group recreational activities.

Under the tutelage and supervision of an ABA therapist, our caring staff works intensely with each child to

  • support his/her positive functioning
  • manage and eliminate challenging behavior
  • increase home skills (including self care and activities of daily living)
  • improve leisure skills through community activities such as outings to a shopping center, park, restaurant or movie.

Staff is committed to engaging family members in this learning process whenever possible and making them feel welcome in the home.
