Programs

For more than 130 years, SCO has delivered programs and services to New York’s most under-resourced communities, offering long-term, life-changing results. Through our vast network of programs, we offer a continuum of care and services that gets young children off to a good start, launches youth into adulthood, stabilizes and strengthens families, and unlocks potential for children and adults with special needs.
