Children's Attention Home, Inc.

The mission and primary goal of the Children's Attention Home is to provide nurturing care and life-changing services for youth and families in need.

The Children's Attention Home conducts its mission through a professional, supportive staff that is trained to meet each child's individual needs. Upon placement, the staff ensures that each child's emergency and basic needs are met. Within five days, all children are seen by a physician, and within 14 days, all are seen by an optometrist, dentist, mental health professional, and has an individualized comprehensive care plan prepared for them. The care plan ensures that every child receives the necessary services to overcome their circumstances and reach their full potential. The progress of each child is evaluated on at least a monthly basis and the child's care plan is updated accordingly.

Since its establishment in 1970, the Children's Attention Home has secured a dedicated Board of Directors, a devoted multidisciplinary team, and a committed network of community service providers who work tirelessly to implement the mission of the Children's Attention Home. Through this collaborative effort, the Home successfully serves approximately 115 children each year.

When the Children's Attention Home began, it served strictly as an emergency shelter with the capacity of caring for up to nine children at a time who were victims of child abuse. Since then, the campus has grown and is now able to provide care for up to 36 children at a time. Services have also expanded to include full-service, long-term developmental care. As each year passes, the Home continues to grow and strengthen in all aspects, developing and implementing new programs to better meet the needs of the precious children entrusted to its care, ensuring better outcomes for their futures.
