VISION Our vision is to change the lives of the kids who will change the world. VALUES At Children’s Home Association of Illinois, we value excellence, growth, compassion, grit, diversity and collaboration. WHAT WE DO We raise up our community by trans forming the lives of at-risk youth, the people who love and care for them and the people who no longer can through education, clinical and community support services, residential placement, preven tion and more. The services provided at Children’s Home don’t just impact the individual child, they create ripple effects within their immediate family, neighborhood, community and world, by providing the opportunity to thrive.

DID YOU KNOW? Theeye-catchingbrickbuildingonKnoxville is our Administrative headquarters and no longer houses children. We proudly offer residential and placement services to our clients, but the former bedrooms have been converted to offices and no children live in the Knoxville building. We’re hiring!
