We believe...

The anchor of a child’s life is his or her family.  In all of creation there exists no other place where a child can experience the a deep bond with his or her parents.

This understanding binds Childkind to its mission – to empower families caring for children with special healthcare and developmental needs, promoting safe, stable, and nurturing homes.

Breathing through every service we provide is a passionate belief that the love between a parent and a child and the love within their family is fundamental to well-being. Our vision is not to create the perfect organization or to advance a trademark program model. Our vision reaches beyond bricks and policies.  We dream of a world filled with endless possibilities, unconditional love, and acceptance for children and youth with special healthcare and developmental needs. For this to happen, these children must have a healthy family.

As every child has a unique diagnosis and every family within which they live have unique circumstances, we are prepared to engage every household in a unique way.

While we use evidence-based programming, provide fully accredited services, and carefully evaluate the quality of our operations, we never lose sight of the fact that each household has its own universe, secrets, and treasures.  That is where we deliver our services – in the home of each family.

Childkind offers a continuum of services.

Through its Placement Services program, Childkind offers foster care, permanency planning, and host home placement.  With its Home Based Services program, Childkind provides Supportive Care Coordination, Family Support Services, and Advocacy & Training.  During 2014, Childkind will be introducing in-home nursing services for children.
