St. Augustine Youth Services celebrated another location in the community.
On October 22, 2025, County Commissioner Ann Taylor represented the St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners at the St. Augustine Youth Services Community Outpatient Center Open House and Ribbon Cutting located at 35 Alsop Court. The County funded $400,000 towards the purchase of the building.
St. Augustine Youth Services (SAYS) shapes the future of Florida’s at-risk youth by providing coaching, counseling and care in family style therapeutic group homes and outpatient community services. SAYS is a non-profit organization that has been serving youth since 1989. They have provided treatment for thousands of boys and girls who have suffered abuse or neglect, or are otherwise in need of mental health support. In 1989, they opened our doors on Saragossa Street in downtown St. Augustine, FL. That year, they served 18 youth. Today, the Hutson Family campus is located at 201 Simone Way, boasting four residential group homes (Specialized Therapeutic and Pre-Independent Living) and offices for community programs. With their reach now extending to three counties (St. Johns, Flagler, Putnam) SAYS is able to provide critical mental health services to hundreds of youths annually.
