As of January 2017, Family & Children Services of Silicon Valley (FCS) is a division of Caminar.  The strategic partnership brings together two Bay Area behavioral health organizations with a shared commitment to providing a path to recovery by strengthening families and communities and empowering individuals to live independently, self-sufficiently, and with pride.

Founded in 1948, FCS provides a wide variety of counseling, prevention, and support services for children, teens, and adults. Recognizing that each individual has unique needs and experiences, FCS clinicians partner with clients and their families to provide the skills and tools clients need to be empowered to transform their lives and achieve their goals.
