We work to put children on a path to social, emotional, and educational success.
Therapeutic child care
Our program is a therapeutic child care system that addresses the total well-being of a child, promotes educational competency and offers behavioral and rehabilitative therapy. Our preschool program also includes components to assist parents and families as they work to develop positive parenting skills and increase family stability.
At Children's Place, learning is hands-on, interesting and interactive. Our preschool is a happy place where the joys of childhood are celebrated and making friends is encouraged. Children experience and explore the world around them through well-planned and spontaneous activities. In addition, we serve three home-cooked meals a day and provide bus transportation.
Other services include:
- Mental Health Counseling
- Speech Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Physical Therapy

- Emotional development
- Social development
- Language development
- Behavioral problems

“My name is Nathan and I am 3 years old. My mom has lived in more than 10 foster families. My mom yells a lot, cries a lot, and sometimes we just ride around in a car while I sleep. We came to Children’s Place because Mama thought something was wrong with me. I have stayed at Children’s Place longer than we have been anywhere else. Maybe we found a family.”
30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse their own children, continuing the horrible cycle of abuse.
