The Children's Shelter is a private, nationally accredited nonprofit corporation. Since 1901, we have provided a safe haven for child survivors of abuse, neglect, and abandonment in San Antonio and Bexar County. Today, The Children's Shelter is a trauma-informed care certified organization that provides a continuum of care through our family of services. We provide emergency shelter and residential treatment for children in crisis and helps children find permanent homes through foster care and adoption. Our Family Strengthening programs teach nurturing parenting skills to vulnerable families and help families overcome crises. Our outpatient mental health clinic provides trauma-sensitive therapeutic interventions for children impacted by maltreatment. The Children's Shelter provides a continuum of trauma-informed care for more than 4,500 children and families annually.
