Our response to growing needs

Bethany Christian Services was founded on a simple but powerful principle: Every child is made in the image of God. He knows each child uniquely and cares deeply for their every need. As his most cherished creation, children deserve nothing less than unconditional love and a safe, nurturing environment.

As the largest Christian child and family organization in the U.S., Bethany offers services that meet clients’ ever-changing needs. So when families face a crisis, we'll be there—protecting children by strengthening their families. Because we believe everyone deserves to be safe, loved, and connected.

For over 80 years, we've been dedicated to supporting vulnerable children and families across the United States. Through our commitment and care, we've served more than 1 million children and families, making a meaningful impact in communities nationwide.
