Children’s Residential Center
Music reaches youth in the midst of their hurt
We are pleased to share about our new music therapy program within our children’s residential center. Here’s insight into the nature of music therapy and its ability to reach kids in the midst of their pain and trauma.
Cultural competency
The unique cultures and experiences of our residents are an important part of who they are and how we serve them. Our hope is to help them experience their worth in Christ through relationships and services.
More than a suitcase
Children often arrive on our residential campus with their few belongings in plastic bags. Many times, these kids have left their prior home situation in crisis mode. Here’s one opportunity to show them that they matter.
A strong academic year
The 2019-2020 school year is coming to a close across our country in a very different way than it started. Our hearts go out to students, parents and staff who have made major adjustments in their education format. Here’s an updated on our first year education partnership with Norwayne Local School District
Compost available
Visits to the big red barn in the center of campus give hurting individuals an interactive experience with a horse they have specifically chosen. Equine therapy builds a bond between a child and a horse with the support of a licensed clinician. God uses their time together for amazing life change.
Art benefits mental health
As we continue in Mental Health Awareness Month, we turn our focus to art therapy as a resource for helping individuals process emotion and trauma.
