ABOUT US
🌟 ESCOKIDOS: Culturally Sensitive Child Abuse Prevention Services
ESCOKIDOS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing child abuse through culturally responsive, trauma-informed interventions. We serve families identified by community partners as needing support, with a focus on Hispanic households navigating the challenges of acculturation in a fast-paced society.
🤝 Referral-Based, Community-Driven Support
We collaborate with schools, clinics, churches, and social service agencies across North and South San Diego County to identify families at risk. Referrals guide our tailored services, which are informed by national and regional child abuse trends and designed to equip caregivers with tools for safety, protection, and resilience.
🧭 Personalized, Preventive Interventions
Following a screening process, eligible families are matched with a case worker who co-develops a personalized plan. Services typically span three months, with extensions available based on engagement and progress. While we prioritize in-person support, virtual and outdoor sessions are available to ensure safety and accessibility.
🔐 Confidential, Compliant, Compassionate
ESCOKIDOS adheres to HIPAA and federal confidentiality standards, maintaining encrypted records and conducting regular quality assurance assessments. We do not serve families with open Juvenile Court cases, repeated police interventions, or those deemed uncooperative by referring agencies—but we ensure appropriate referrals to alternate providers when needed.
🌍 Regional Impact
We operate in designated Escondido zip codes (incorporated and unincorporated) and the South Bay area, bridging gaps in child abuse prevention with culturally attuned care and community empowerment.
