Residential Child Care
Established in 1967 by the churches of Christ, High Plains Children's Home and Family Services, Inc. is committed to providing a natural home environment for the children in our care. Building strong relationships is the foundation of our program and the responsibility of overseeing each cottage is entrusted to well-trained houseparents who nurture our children with love and Christian guidance. Our children have many opportunities to interact with people outside of the Home as they are encouraged to form relationships at church, school and within the community.
High Plains serves a target area of the Texas Panhandle, Northeastern New Mexico, Oklahoma and Kansas. Each child, ranging in age from 5 - 17 years, resides in a large, comfortable and well-furnished home, living with up to seven other children from diverse backgrounds. We provide cottages for boys, girls, sibling groups as well as Transitional Living.
Our mission is to embrace the charge of guiding those in our care towards Christ by defending their hearts and instilling in them courage to become agents of love and hope.
