Side by Side
At Side by Side we walk with young people impacted by adversity on their unique journeys to heal from trauma, restore resilience, and embrace their own potential. Since our founding in 1895 as an orphanage - and through many years as Sunny Hills Services - Side by Side has been at the forefront of best practices in child welfare. Today, Side by Side operates in four counties - Marin, Alameda, Sonoma, and Napa - across the Bay Area, each year reaching over 2,500 youth ages 5-26 and family members with critical services including behavioral and mental health, early intervention in schools, LGBTQ support, transitional housing for foster youth, and special education.

The Godmothers of St. Vincent’s School for Boys
St. Vincent's School for Boys is dedicated exclusively to therapeutic and compassionate care of abused, neglected, and traumatized boys. At the historic 770-acre campus in Marin County owned by Catholic Charities SF, St. Vincent's boys live in one of four houses, grouped by age, in a home-like setting. The Godmothers of St. Vincent's School for Boys is a group of active volunteers who support the boys through fundraising as well as volunteering time and talent to promote positive life experiences. Godmother programs reach beyond the classroom and clinical environment, with the goal of building self-esteem, improving social skills and renewing trust.
