What We Do

In the United States, 1 in 7 children will suffer from abuse or neglect at some point, leading to lifelong negative outcomes – but it doesn’t have to be this way. Champions for Children is a nationally accredited agency preventing child abuse and neglect by:

  • Helping pregnant women prepare for childbirth and care for a newborn
  • Giving parents and caregivers the confidence and knowledge they need to provide a healthy home environment
  • Ensuring children hit key milestones in their learning and development

Who We Help

We serve every child and every family, from those who just need a little extra help to those who are deeply struggling. Every family has different needs, and we know there aren’t any “one size fits all” solutions. Instead, we take the time to get to know you and your family to help support you where you need it most.
