About us
About Andrus Andrus (Julia Dyckman Andrus Memorial) is a private, non-profit organization that helps secure strong, promising futures for children, families, and communities by promoting stability, increasing resilience, and rebuilding hope. Our mission is to transform lives through innovative, coordinated social and emotional support for all. Our vision for the community we serve is for children and families to discover a place of safety and healing. Andrus provides mental health and community services through its innovative, one system of care model that effectively and equitably responds to the social determinants of health. Guided by the trauma-responsive framework of our Sanctuary Model and a justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion lens, Andrus staff partner with individuals, children, and families to provide services in their homes, communities, on our 110-acre campus in Yonkers/Hastings, and in 35 school-based mental health clinics across Westchester. We specialize in providing children and families with the skills they need to express and cope with strong emotions, effectively decreasing the need for inpatient and residential treatment. Andrus is committed to providing equal access to its programs and facilities without regard to race, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or ability to pay. At Andrus we believe every child, family and community deserves to feel safe, valued and loved.

Camp update from our Director of Recreational Therapy, Michelle Yadon. “I wanted to share a beautiful moment from today. Last year, one of the residents came-up with the idea of us doing a campus wide cooking completion! Today we participated in our first annual Andrus Iron Chef. The children and staff blew us away with creativity, teamwork, and delicious creations. The recreation team was so inspired by our children and staff. Congrats to Bourne Hall on their win! Best, Michelle“ To learn more about Andrus and it’s many offerings visit our website at www.andrus1928.org #weareandrus #innovativecare #traumainformedschools #traumainformedcare #familyhelp

I always find volunteer work to be rewarding and fulfilling but today was a top highlight for me. I had the honor to address The Orchard School Eigth Grade Graduation ceremony at Andrus. It was amazing to be part of the celebration for the 24 graduates of the Class of 2024. And the guest speaker, who happened to have graduated from the school and now works there, gave a truly inspirational speech. Congratulations to the Andrus leadership team, Principal Lewis and especially the faculty & staff who play a huge role in molding these young men and women to move on to the next chapter in their lives. This is a day I will always remember. Corine Lurry-Mabin Lynette Garcia, MS, CHC Richard Thompson
