Mission Statement

The mission of The Children's House at Johns Hopkins is to provide a family-centered, supportive residence for children receiving medical care at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center. It is our purpose to keep families together in the midst of medical crisis, to reduce stress and to promote self-help and mutual support.

Description

The Children's House at Johns Hopkins serves as a warm "home-away-from-home" for families while their children are undergoing treatment at local area hospitals, including The Johns Hopkins Children's Center. We are currently building a new Children's House which will take a few years. In the meantime, we are still open and serving families on a smaller scale at the nearby Residence Inn. Although our families are staying at the Residence Inn, they are guests of The Children's House at Johns Hopkins and we handle all aspects of their stay.

The Children's House, a project of Believe In Tomorrow National Children's Foundation, was established in January 1993. The Children's House continues to rely on the support of many individuals and corporations to operate the facility, and as such, exists as a testimony to the true spirit of volunteerism.
