Connecting youth to happier, healthier lives
At YouthCare, we're dedicated to supporting the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) youth in care. Partnering with foster families, we do everything we can to help youth grow stronger and healthier. We're proud to be there. From the moment of placement. For every foster youth and family in our state.
YouthCare's team helps families access whole-health care services, find providers, schedule appointments, and explore resources and support. Our large provider network is ready to deliver the medical and mental health care that each foster child neds.
And we're ready to connect families with more. Like rewards for completing care services. Free rides to appointments. And training and support for families.
Questions? We're here for you. Call us at 844-289-2264 (TTY: 711). Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.
