KAFSC provides a supportive environment for young clients ages 12-18 to share their thoughts and feelings on topics such as identity, peer and family relationships, dating violence, school, and personal and life goals. With guidance from a counselor, teens receive support and encouragement from each other. They view KAFSC as a positive and safe place to overcome their struggles through discussions, games and field trips. Counselors use facilitation techniques to help teens speak openly, develop self-awareness, empathy for others, and improve their social and conflict resolution skills.
This "big sister-big brother" program matches young clients ages 10-18 with an adult, typically a young professional or older college student, who provides friendship and guidance.

These positive relationships enable the mentors to help their little brothers and sisters to broaden their interests, cope with identity issues, improve self-esteem and develop school and career goals.
