Northern Children's Services

Northern Children's Services "We help children, youth, and families do better today so that we all do better tomorrow."

Everything we do at Northern Children’s Services is designed to create a better future for our families. We believe that every child and youth has the potential to transform themselves – no matter their background or life situations. If we invest in that potential through services that focus on care, safety, health, permanency, independence, and positive relationships, then children, youth and their families will lead happier and healthy lives.

Take a walk through your neighborhood, visit a local park, or enjoy a family game night. Small moments of connection can make a big impact on a child's well-being.

June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate, uplift, and support LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities.

At Northern, we recognize the importance of creating safe, affirming spaces where children, youth, and families can thrive and be accepted for who they are.

We're excited to be participating in the Philly Pride 365 Festival this coming Sunday, June 7th! If you'll be attending, stop by our resource table to meet members of our team, learn more about our programs and services, and connect with us as we celebrate inclusion, acceptance, and community.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at Northern! 🌈
