Christ Child House

Christ Child House "It's never too late to have a happy childhood" Christ Child House has been providing care for abused and neglected children in the Detroit area since 1948.

Today it is an intensive treatment center fully licensed by the state of Michigan to provide residential services for up to 31 boys, ages 5 through 17, who suffer emotional, behavioral and physical impairment resulting from severe abuse and neglect.

🌎💚 This Earth Day, we are reminded that caring for our children and caring for our planet go hand in hand.

At Christ Child House, we believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing environment, not just today, but for generations to come. Small actions add up, and together we can model responsibility, respect, and care for the world our children will inherit.

Whether it’s reducing waste, spending time outdoors, or teaching the value of protecting our environment, every step matters.

🌱 Together, we’re building brighter futures, for our children and our planet.

I am deeply grateful, thankful and thrilled for the next chapter at Christ Child House. We are a state of the art, trauma informed program serving children who have faced incredible challenges in life. The work we do is vital, it is necessary and we are extremely proud. I need to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed even one moment to making this vision a reality for the future. Our open house was beyond all of my expectations💙

The day is finally here, our boys can play in the gym full-time, year-round! 🏀✨

We have been looking forward to this moment for a long time. This gym is not just a place to burn energy (though there will be plenty of that 😄), it is a space for growth, teamwork, confidence, and everyday joy. Having consistent, reliable access all year means more opportunities for healthy routines, skill-building, and connection.

We truly cannot thank our staff, board, donors and the entire team of individuals who made this possible. Your generosity, time, and hard work turned a dream into something our boys will be able to experience every single day. From all of us, thank you for believing in them and investing in their future.❤️

Well the wait is over. We are about to be fully moved to our new location. This moment has been in the works for more than five years, and it is filled with gratitude, pride, and hope.
This dream became possible because so many people believed in it and worked for it. We had an extraordinary fundraising and steering committee who gave their time, their talent, and their hearts to make this vision real. We are deeply thankful for every supporter who donated, volunteered, encouraged, and stood with us through each step.
Our Board has remained steadfast in its belief in our mission and our vision. Their leadership and commitment helped carry this project from an idea to a home that will strengthen our work for generations.
Now we stand at the beginning of a new journey. This new space will allow us to provide care to more children for many years to come. It will help us serve with greater comfort, safety, and stability, and it will give the children and families we support an environment that reflects the dignity and love they deserve.
Thank you for believing in Christ Child House. Thank you for helping build what comes next. We cannot wait to welcome you into this new chapter and continue this work together. Photos courtesy of Laszlo Regos Photography.
