We are an integrated children's agency that advocates for and provides coordinated services for children families and individuals. Our primary focus is on children most in need of counseling support and protection from abuse and neglect while supporting families in their central role of caring for and nurturing children. We fund the housing and every day care of children in need of protection. We have programs to support individuals with delays and their families and provide relief programming for children who are medically fragile and technologically dependent.
