Services for Children, Youth and Families in Denver CO and the Surrounding Area
Family Tree services for children, youth and families across all our programs. We provide community-based education, treatment, crisis intervention and case management to stabilize families with children and youth in order to prevent and help families overcome child abuse.
If you believe a child is being abused or neglected and is in immediate harm, contact 911. Otherwise, contact the Colorado Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline at 1-844-CO-4-Kids or 1-844-264-5437.

Family Tree supports the safety, stability, and well-being of children by strengthening the entire family system. We take an integrated, whole-family approach, recognizing that children thrive when their caregivers have the tools, support, and confidence to navigate challenges. Our services focus on improving family functioning, enhancing parent–child relationships, and reducing stressors that can lead to instability. Through evidence-informed practices, individualized case management, and partnerships with community providers, CYS helps families build practical skills, increase resilience, and create safer, more nurturing home environments.
Family Tree offers a range of supports tailored to each family’s needs, with SafeCare being just one of the many resources available. SafeCare is a nationally recognized program that provides structured coaching in parenting skills, home safety, and child health—helping caregivers build confidence and consistency. Alongside SafeCare, families may receive assistance with goal-setting, basic needs, access to therapy or community resources, and ongoing advocacy. By combining these services, Family Tree ensures that families receive comprehensive support rooted in respect, empowerment, and long-term stability. Our goal is not just to address immediate challenges, but to help families create lasting change that supports children’s healthy development.

Meet Claire*. She and her siblings now live with their older, adult cousin Lucy after being removed from their home. Lucy* welcomed Claire and her siblings into her home, despite her small house already being occupied by her own immediate family.
Family Tree received a referral from Adams County to provide in-home individual and family therapy when Claire and her siblings were placed in Lucy’s home. The children lacked confidence and a sense of identity, and struggled to integrate well within this new family arrangement, given their loyalty to their biological mother. Upon beginning Family Tree CFRT services, Claire was uninterested in communicating with her cousin and isolated herself from the family.
