Mission Message

Shining a Light

For over 25 years the EBAC Auxiliary has been shining a light on East Bay Agency for Children, raising millions of essential dollars to help thousands of children and their families in Alameda county.

A Star is Born

From its humble beginnings in 1952 when a group of East Bay families with $45 and a room, started a six week program to help a small group of children with special needs and learning differences. EBAC has grown meteorically, now serving over 24,000 children and their families each year, propelled by a budget of $25 million.

Guiding Stars

EBAC Services include:

Guiding Stars

Trauma-informed Mental Health Counseling in over 40 schools decreases depression and anxiety, increases learning readiness, and cultivates cultures of care

Wish Upon a Star

Six Family Resource Centers, helping families access food, basic needs, and public benefits as well as offering grief support and parent education.

The North Star

Coaching and Case Management for at-risk-youth keeps teens safe, in class, out of the principal's office, and headed for graduation

Tiny Stars Light the Universe

After School Programs for 1,000 elementary students in seven Oakland schools extend learning, nourish with food and play, and support working parents so their children can shine bright.

Shooting for the Stars

EBAC has been so successful developing workforce skills to support recovery and resilience in children and their families they now provide Trauma Transformed training to other community organizations.
