Lincoln
MISSION
Lincoln disrupts the cycle of poverty and trauma, empowering children and families to build strong futures.
HISTORY
In 1883, Rebecca Wade, our founder, opened her home for what would become the first racially integrated orphanage in Northern California and began Lincoln’s legacy of responding to the needs of children and families. Today, we impact more than 4,600 children and families annually, and our track record is proven: kids attend school, learn to read and stay with their
families where they do best. With Lincoln, they beat the odds, realizing their potential, and building successful academic, work and life skills.
REACH
Lincoln serves Alameda and Contra Costa counties, at four regional offices and over 30 school and community sites in both counties and throughout the Greater San Francisco Bay Area.
