Crittenton Layoff — March 2026

Strauss Borrelli PLLC is investigating Crittenton Services for Children and Families after the organization notified the California Employment Development Department on March 27, 2026 of a planned mass layoff at its Fullerton, California facilities. The notice indicates the layoff would affect 144 employees, and the firm is probing whether Crittenton provided the 60 days' WARN Act notice required by federal law. The investigation alleges Crittenton may have failed to provide timely written notice and that affected employees could be entitled to 60 days of pay and benefits if a violation occurred. Crittenton Services is a Fullerton-headquartered nonprofit offering foster care, adoption support, behavioral health, and family assistance programs; the notice and potential violation relate specifically to its Fullerton operations.

Crittenton disclosed this layoff in an official WARN (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification) notice recorded by the CA state workforce agency on March 27, 2026. The notice covers 144 employees in Amerige Ave Fullerton, CA (Orange County), with the layoff effective March 31, 2026.

The state lists each affected employee separately by work location, so this filing spans 3 CA communities: Amerige Ave Fullerton, Harbor Blvd Fullerton, Valley View Fullerton.
