he Child Center of NY began in 1953 as a children`s mental health agency. Since then we have evolved into a multi-service organization that reaches more than 26,000 children each year. Our mission is to strengthen children and families with skills, opportunities, and emotional support to build healthy, successful lives. We believe in a world where every family has the tools to raise emotionally and physically healthy children, every child thrives, and together they contribute to strong, vibrant communities. We believe that every child has the right to be happy and secure. We know that healthy family and community relationships are essential to a child`s success, and that poverty, trauma, and the hardships of immigration can threaten a child`s development. We know that with the right skills, education, counseling, and development programs, children can reach their full potential.To achieve these goals, we work in four main program areas: early childhood education, behavioral health (including both individual and family counseling), child abuse prevention and family support, and youth development. We take a holistic approach, realizing that children don`t grow in isolation, but rather as a part of families and communities, and we offer services that support each child`s whole cognitive, social-emotional, and physical well-being as the building blocks for a healthier society. We also offer programs that serve parents and other caregivers so that they become able to handle challenges on their own. We provide all services in a culturally sensitive manner, in 22 different languages and in a way that appreciates the nuances and potential barriers of intercultural communication.
