VISION VISION VISION

Keeping Children Safe…Strengthening Families…

Promoting Independence

PHILOSOPHY

Tabor Children’s Services is a private nonprofit child welfare

agency serving children, youth, young adults and families.

Services for families are the least restrictive possible and link

families with resources for support within their own

community and culture. Extended family members with safe

homes are the best resource for children who cannot remain

with their own parents. Preparation for youth independence

begins at the onset of service delivery and includes planning

the steps that will lead to emancipation from the child

welfare system. Permanency and Independence are key

objectives for all service consumers.
