Local Nonprofit Adolescent Counseling Services Honored With Prestigious Award

From ACS: Adolescent Counseling Services (ACS), a community-based nonprofit agency dedicated to the healthy social and emotional welfare of local youth, was recognized as Nonprofit of the Year for 2017 by Assemblymember Marc Berman of the 24th Assembly District. ACS was selected based on their exceptional leadership and service to the youth of Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties.

ACS and other nonprofits will be honored at the State Capitol in Sacramento at an awards luncheon on June 28th for California Nonprofits Day. The luncheon is hosted by the California Association of Nonprofits (CalNonprofits), a statewide alliance of over 10,000 organizations working to bring the full power of nonprofits to strengthening communities. At last year’s inaugural event, CEO of CalNonprofits Jan Masaoka stated, “We congratulate all of the award recipients on being honored for the great work they do every day to make California a better place.”

“We are so proud to be recognized for the work we’ve done over the past forty-five years in helping thousands of adolescents and their families thrive,” says Philippe Rey, Executive Director of ACS. “As we continue to grow our programs, we hope to support even more adolescents to help them find their way in our communities.”
