It’s Back To School season, and Christ’s Haven For Children is committed to caring for the whole child. Will you join us by making a financial gift to support the physical, spiritual, and academic needs of displaced youth?

A recent report from child welfare experts provides important insight into the impact trauma can make on a child’s education:

• Children who have suffered from neglect exhibit lower academic achievement.
• Mistreated children have a greater instance of exhibiting poor social skills and classroom behavior problems.
• Maltreatment in the first five years of life nearly triples a child’s likelihood of having academic problems, making them far likelier to drop out of school before completing high school.

That can feel overwhelming and daunting, but we truly believe that the support your financial gifts provide to Christ’s Haven can create a path toward healing and hope. Your gift provides the following for a child who lives at Christ’s Haven:

• Individualized Tutoring
• Case Management with our Educational Consultant
• Individual Counseling
• Play Therapy, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy as needed
• Secondary Education Planning & Guidance, & Financial Assistance
