Horizons Healthcare & Retire

Supporting more than 57,000 children across the region, Horizons Healthcare & Retirement Community in Orchard City operates as a key component of Volunteers of America’s youth and family services. The facility delivers a full continuum of care, beginning with early intervention programs like Head Start and childcare that help young children develop socially and academically. School-age youth benefit from before- and after-school care, summer camps, and mentoring, while older teens access leadership development, job training, and pregnancy prevention resources. When families face crisis, the organization provides foster care, delinquency prevention, and family reunification services, alongside adoption support for those who cannot return home. Residential treatment addresses substance misuse and mental health disorders for youth in the foster system, and transitional housing assists homeless youth in exiting the streets. The community also manages group homes and offers long-term services for those needing extended support. With wheelchair accessibility, ample parking, and credit card acceptance, Horizons ensures that its diverse clientele, from toddlers to teenagers, receive consistent, comprehensive care. The staff’s focus on prevention and early intervention creates a stable environment where marginalized families can rebuild their lives.
