Children’s Home Society of Washington and Childhaven have merged to form a new organization, Akin. Learn more: www.akinfamily.org

While our name is changing, what remains constant is our commitment to families, caregivers, parents and children. At Children’s Home Society of Washington, we aim to offer holistic support and reach our families before they are in crisis, to identify their unique needs and set them up with resources and prevention services to manage life’s challenges at a time when additional support is needed most. Our four core service areas include:

• Early learning: ensuring children have the strongest possible foundation to thrive during a critical period of their development
• Parent & family education: equipping parents with the resources to support their children through every stage, milestone, and challenge
• Behavioral health & counseling: giving parents and children the tools to address behavioral health
challenges, building on each family’s strengths
• Family reunification: offering mentorship and support for parents whose children are temporarily in foster care, so they can move toward nurturing strong, life-long families

This is just a snapshot of the support we provide to families in need. Through the pandemic, we have been nimble in our approach to continue offering support in a virtual capacity, knowing additional resources and care can make the critical difference between “I’m in crisis” and “I am going to be OK.” Because when we start with family, we all succeed. If you are in need of support – reach out. You can help us continue our important work in serving families in Washington state today with a gift. www.childrenshomesociety.org/donate.
