Serving the children and families of Long Island since 1969... In 1969, Judge Elizabeth Bass Golding of the Nassau County Family Court, founded Hope For Youth to create a group home program for adolescent boys. Judge Golding envisioned a community based alternative for emotionally disturbed Nassau County youth placed in residential treatment centers, but capable of living in the community with appropriate supports. Hope For Youth opened its first boys group home in Bellmore in 1970 and subsequently received local, state and national recognition for demonstrating the viability of the group home model for youth. facebook.com/HFYNY
