Presbyterian Children’s Homes & Services (PCHAS) has provided Christ-centered services to children and families in crisis for over a century. On any given day, PCHAS serves 130 children in the 19 Group Homes located in Itasca, Waxahachie, San Antonio, Duncanville and Austin. An additional 70 children are served in the 35 Fosters Homes located in north central Texas. Another 300 children and their families are served each month by the Child and Family Programs located in Houston, Corsicana, Corpus Christi, Fort Worth, Austin, Kilgore, and Dallas (with Shreveport opening in 2004).The Advanced Education Program has 34 young adults enrolled in college, universities, and technical schools.

Presbyterian Children’s Homes & Services demonstrates to children that God’s love can be trusted, that it is unconditional and everlasting. Volunteer opportunities exist at the Child and Family Programs in Dallas and Fort Worth and on the Itasca Campus.
