PCHAS provides Christ-centered care and support to children and families in need. Our mission is a restatement of the biblical call in James 1:27 that true religion is this: to look after orphans in their distress. 

PCHAS believes that the most powerful way to help children is by strengthening their families. We accomplish this by living into our philosophy of care which is to be family centered, strength focused, and goal driven.

We are a faith-based Christian organization which strives to serve like Jesus. We meet our clients where they are and treat them with respect. We focus on our clients’ strengths rather than their problems. And we encourage our clients to focus on their future rather than their past. 

With faithful support from individuals, churches and foundations, we serve nearly 4,500 children and families across three states every year. As stewards of this trust and support, we follow tenets of excellence to ensure families achieve self-sufficiency and children are placed into loving, permanent homes.
