Mission: It is the mission of the great falls children's receiving home to provide a temporary home for abandoned, abused, neglected and homeless children. The receiving home will provide shelter, food, clothing, warmth, love and understanding. It is an open door and truly a home, not an institution.
Programs: For over 50 years, the great falls children's receiving home has provided safe, temporary shelter to thousands of children who have been removed from their homes of origin due to child abuse, neglect, abandonment, parental drug use, domestic violence, and parental incarceration. Each of these children carries a heartbreaking story of his or her abuse. Our goal is not only to provide these children a safe environment, but to show them that nurturing, compassion and love are the norm and not the exception. We treat each and every child with love, dignity and respect and provide a violence-free, safe, fun environment. We ensure that each child's rights are protected and their childhood preserved. We provide clothing, meals, transportation, recreation, toys, and livelihood for each child who stays with us. It's a big job, indeed, but each and every child is worth it. We served approximately 104 children during the fiscal year ended june 30, 2017.
