About us
For nearly 140 years, Together for Youth (formerly Berkshire Farm Center) has remained committed to a mission of empowering youth and families so they can live safely, independently, and productively within their communities. Our history is long and our commitment to our mission has not wavered, but the way we help families has evolved to meet their unique challenges. Our 600+ staff across NYS bring their authentic selves to work each day as they serve over 2,000 children and families daily. Learn more about our mission, our commitment to DEI, and ways to get involved by visiting our website at: www.berkshirefarm.org or following us on social media. TFY's Equity Statement: The Berkshire Farm Center and Services for Youth community stands committed to embracing and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. We vow to begin our journey by looking inward – by examining all biases and judgements while acknowledging both privilege and power. We are committed to better understanding privilege whether it be through race, gender, sexual identity, religion, ability, or other forms. Once fully acknowledged, we pledge to use the identified privilege to advocate for others. We understand that the work we do fosters change that will create a positive, ripple effect within our agency and in the community. We at TFY stand committed to becoming an all-inclusive, anti-racist, multicultural organization that encompasses a sense of belonging for all staff members, children and families, and community partners who join us in our mission. We are committed to dismantling barriers and ideology that reinforce a non-inclusive environment. We are dedicated to remaining open-minded, respectful, and actively choose learning over comfort. We acknowledge that everyone is on their own journey, and we strive to cultivate a culture of non-judgment, to choose words carefully, show compassion, extend grace, and consistently strive to become an advocate and ally for others.
