FOSTERING STABILITY AND SUCCESS

Picture
Children Today provides trauma-informed child development and family support services to some of the most vulnerable members of our community; children and families experiencing homelessness or maltreatment.  Since 1997, we have helped hundreds of families and their young children achieve stability and success. ​ Children Today is proud to support these families, who show us, every day, the meaning of resilience. 

OUR APPROACH TO SUPPORT

Image with rounded corners
Building on our trauma-informed philosophy, Children Today offers tailored support to foster stability and growth for our children and families. We focus on early childhood development and offer families the tools and resources to overcome challenges and work together for a brighter future.
  • Child Development Support: We provide a safe and nurturing environment where young children can heal, learn, and thrive through play-based learning and individualized attention.
  • Family Assistance: We connect families to vital community resources and offer direct support to help them meet their immediate needs and work toward long-term stability.
  • Collaborative Care: By partnering with local agencies, we ensure families receive holistic support to address the challenges they face and their goals for the future.

Help us make the season brighter by joining Children Today's Holiday Store!
Each year, thanks to donations from our community, we create a special store where current and alumni families can shop for toys, clothes, shoes, and personal care products—completely free of charge! Your support helps to make this possible.
