SCO Family of Services

Headquartered at 1 Alexander Place, Glen Cove, NY, SCO provides life-changing care, housing, education, and behavioral health support to children, adults, and families, with a particular focus on vulnerable populations including individuals with special needs. For nursing professionals, SCO offers community-based RN roles that involve overseeing all medical aspects of care for persons supported, including weekly face-to-face health assessments, medication management, coordination of medical appointments, review of medical visit summaries, and patient advocacy during medical care with prescribers. Nursing at SCO is deeply integrated into a social services model rather than a traditional clinical setting, requiring strong assessment skills, care coordination abilities, and a commitment to trauma-informed, person-centered care.

SCO's mission is to empower children, adults, and families through life-changing care, housing, education, and behavioral health support, helping them overcome challenges and succeed. Their vision envisions a world where all New Yorkers thrive. Core values include Compassion (deep empathy and trauma-informed care), Belonging (intentional equity, inclusion, and diversity), and Empowerment (enhancing strengths of individuals, families, communities, and staff).
