Package
Many organizations say they value DEI but they don’t do the work.
Mental health and family services are challenging enough without the disappointment you feel when employers give lip service to social justice.
We believe the time you give to human services should be spent with people who share your drive to create meaningful change in the industry.
Find the place where client care
and social justice meet.
We understand how much work is involved in making DEI a living, breathing reality in an organization. To demonstrate our commitment, we have two mission statements one for our core services and one dedicated to diversity, equity and inclusion.

About Wayside Youth & Family Support Network
Wayside has a long history as a pioneer and reformer human services.
Our story began in 1977 when a group of citizens formed one of the first residences in New England for runaway and homeless youth—Harbinger House.
Then, our initial expansion into a larger network was driven by the need for reform – for alternatives to orphanages, reform schools, and psychiatric hospitals. Over the years, Wayside has grown into one of Massachusetts’ most respected youth and family-serving agencies.
Wayside holds the National Accreditation for Excellence from the Council on Accreditation (COA) of Services for Children and Families.
Less than 10 percent of Massachusetts human services organizations achieve COA Accreditation, and in 2020, we achieved the highest possible score on 96% of the 943 COA Standards.
Every action we take is for the sake of building strength, hope, and resiliency in the lives of the youth and families we serve.
