Due to its thoroughness, the process can take several weeks.
To best serve all youth within a group setting, we cannot accept children with extreme treatment needs, police involvement or serious behavior issues.

After receiving a completed application form, we will schedule a tour for the child at the children’s home. Once we receive the child’s information, we’ll schedule a weekend visit. After an evaluation, and upon approving the applicant, the director of children’s services will arrange a date for the child to move into the children’s home. Children’s home staff can mail you an application form upon request.
