Unity Care

In San Jose, Unity Care is a nonprofit community services organization supporting young adults in and emerging from foster care. It serves people ages 18 to 24 across the San Francisco Bay Area, Monterey, and Sacramento regions through a housing-first continuum of care. Housing, education, employment, well-being, and unconditional care are its five program pillars. Services help participants pursue high school and post-secondary education, find jobs and build careers, access mental health services, and develop financial literacy. Unity Care also provides stable housing and supportive connections as young adults move toward independent adulthood. The organization reports serving more than 500 young adults annually and has helped over 25,000 since its founding in 1992.
