our story.

Protecting children. Preserving families. Since 1915.

Abuse, neglect and family separation are significant problems in the communities we serve, and without help, the long-term impact on children can prevent them from living healthy, productive lives. Our programs are designed to prevent child abuse, neglect and family separation and help heal and treat children already affected by these tragedies.

With nearly a century of experience working with children, we know that the best way to accomplish our mission is to work with families, whenever possible, to strengthen their ability to care for their own children safely. Over 3,700 children, youth and families are served by our programs each year. An additional 5,000 youth receive critical safety information through our outreach and education services.
