About Us

Wesley Spectrum Services, located in Southwestern Pennsylvania, is a regional human services organization with headquarters in the Pittsburgh area. We work for over 3,000 children and over 7,000 family members in our unique school, mental health, and family programs. It is our mission to provide transformational support for children and families as they strive to become more independent, responsible and caring members of the community. We also strive to create a work environment that is positive and rewarding for its employees; a setting where growth, teamwork, diversity, health and safety are means to meet the charge of our mission.

Many children who live in our communities are suffering from developmental, educational and behavioral health issues. These challenges affect their ability to learn, to adjust, to grow and to become independent. And it impacts all of us.

Wesley Spectrum Services is at work for over 3,000 children and over 7,000 family members right now in our unique school, mental health, and family programs across Western Pennsylvania. Guided by our unique Kid-Centered Decision Making method, a picture for each of these children today looks very different from a picture a day, a week, a year ago.
