EAST BAY AGENCY FOR CHILDREN

EBAC’s transformational programs help children, youth, and families recover from trauma; build upon existing resilience to protect against long-term harm from past or future exposure to adversity; and when possible, prevent exposure to adverse childhood experiences. Guided by a trauma-informed approach, EBAC’s eight distinct, direct service programs include two counseling programs; intervention services for pre-schoolers; six Family Resource Centers; a health and wellness center, and grief support, afterschool, and youth empowerment programs. EBAC also works towards achieving its mission by working locally and nationally to transform systems through its nationally recognized, groundbreaking, Trauma Transformed initiative which provides training, leadership coaching, and policy and practice change consultation, and convenes system and community leaders from government systems and community-based organizations. Volunteer With Us If you are drawn to help local children and families you will find volunteering at EBAC immensely rewarding. Opportunities exist for all levels of volunteering from a one-time shift helping with an after-school event to a 11 month commitment to lead a support group. Our Circle of Care (Illness and Grief Support Services) by EBAC is a comprehensive volunteer program in which you may become a facilitator for a bereavement support group, working with children, teens or their families when a family member has died.
