A Comprehensive, Trauma-Informed Approach
Meet Physical Needs
Caring for at-risk children and families begins with making sure their basic physical needs, like food and safe housing, are met.
Provide Emotional Support
Trauma can impact every part of our lives. We offer counseling, parenting and life skills training to help children and families grow into healthy adults.
Offer Spiritual Hope
True hope and healing is ultimately found in Jesus Christ. It is this truth that we want the children and families of our state to know personally and deeply.
Our Services
Residential Care
This program is designed to meet the long term needs for children ages 1 through 20. Children live in a cottage with other children and Christian house parents on one of our 7 campuses throughout the state.
Non-Residential Services
The Dorcas In-Home Family Support Program is designed to aid families that are near the point of collapse. We provide a range of services to help families reach goals to create a home that is safe and stable for children.
A tangible way to love your neighbor as yourself.
Since 1897, we’ve provided care for thousands of children in Mississippi because of generous donors like you.
How We Are FundedWhen you give, you make it possible for us to reach more than 200 children a year with the good news of Jesus Christ that says:
You are safe.
You are heard.
You are loved.
You are not alone.
You are valued.
You have a Savior - Jesus Christ.
In Him there is hope.
