At Woodward Community Based Services, our mission is to serve the people of Iowa by helping maximize their strengths through community-based services and programs and supporting their efforts to lead healthy, thriving lives. We are deeply committed to the individuals and families that we serve with compassion and excellence, and we not only utilize existing, available resources but also nurture new skills and abilities to foster healthy environments designed to propel people toward natural growth and a positive future.

Ellipsis, a collaboration between Youth Homes of Mid-America and YESS, serves as a critical safety net for children and families in central Iowa. With over 125 years of combined experience, the organization offers a continuum of care that includes community programs, residential programs, and behavioral health support, aimed at empowering families and fostering successful futures. By creating life-changing connections and addressing individual needs, Ellipsis strives to break down barriers and rewrite the stories of those they serve. Their commitment to strengthening families and helping children rediscover their self-worth is central to ensuring that the community's most vulnerable members receive the support they need to thrive.
