Mission Statement
Kinship House is a resource to families and a model for the mental health and child welfare community. Ongoing consultation and educational services provide meaningful therapeutic tools to help children and families.
Description
In the mid 1990s, Kinship House was founded by a group of professionals who observed a significant gap between the delivery of child welfare services and meeting the mental health needs of children in foster care. Since then, Kinship House has expanded to a full-service child mental health agency while maintaining its expertise in work with children and their biological, foster, and adoptive families. Kinship House is a resource to families and a model for the mental health and child welfare community. Ongoing consultation and educational services provide meaningful therapeutic tools to help more children and families.
