Our story…
At Chisholm, they support children who face adversity in life by helping them discover their own potential. Chisholm has a long history of helping children who face complex needs by providing a safe environment while fostering a sense of personal value, self-worth and the development of life skills.
At Chisholm, they help children be children. We do this by delivering three, main, community-based programs:
• Child and Youth Caring Program:
Helping children be children at home, in the classroom and in the
community. Their child and youth caring program provides a safe,
therapeutic home for children 6 to 12 years of age who have faced
adversity in their lives, preventing them from living at home.
• LINKS Literacy Program:
Helping children be children in the classroom; learning to read,
reading to learn. Their LINKS Literacy Program provides support for
children 6 to 12 years of age in the community.
• Trauma Informed Care Group:
Helping parents and caregivers help children be children. Their trauma informed care group program provides critical training and support for parents and caregivers who are waiting to welcome an adopted child into their homes.
