About this organization
SCO is one of the city’s longstanding nonprofit human-services agencies, often appearing in city procurement announcements and philanthropic reports on child welfare innovation. Because foster care is court-involved, families should coordinate with attorneys and ACS caseworkers rather than relying on marketing summaries.
Educational programs (such as early childhood centers) may have separate registration deadlines published per site.
