CHILDREN'S HOME SOCIETY & FAMILY SERVICES

Founded in 1889, Children's Home Society & Family Services knows that a child in a safe, nurturing home is a child who thrives. Recognizing the fundamental human rights of children, we work to give every child security, opportunity, permanency, and a loving family. In Minnesota, throughout the United States and in more than a dozen countries worldwide, we help struggling families stay strong and care for their children. We help children without families find permanent, loving homes through adoption. CHSFS is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization based in Saint Paul, MN, with offices in Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland.
