Serving over 1,200 children a year, CRH operates the only
emergency shelter for abused children in the Sacramento region.
How we help:
Children’s Receiving Home has a long history of providing quality
emergency shelter for the area’s abused and neglected children.
The facility is licensed annually by the State Department of
Social Services and is available twenty-four hours a day, seven
days a week, 365 days per year for the admission of children and
youth between the ages of 1 and 18.
Children are in crisis when they are admitted to this facility,
and our objective is to be as supportive and constructive as
possible during their stay. We also assist with
transitional and aftercare services to promote better placement
outcomes and more enduring reconnection to families and
community.
Besides providing children food, shelter and clothing Children’s
Receiving Home offers a variety of programs that deliver
comprehensive care.
Originating as an emergency shelter, CRH has transformed
over the years as the needs of youth and families have
grown.
CRH STRTP provides high-quality intensive mental health services
in a residential environment to improve overall functioning
through trauma-informed, culturally relevant treatment approaches
within a short-term treatment model, preparing youth to
transition to permanency in the community.
Recognizing the lack of dedicated services to assist the
transition-age population, the Children’s Receiving Home designed
Independent Living Services (ILS) to serve youth who will soon
emancipate from the foster care system. Now with new-found life
skills and self confidence our transition-age youth will be ready
to face the challenges life will bring.
CRH’s Sprouts: Trauma Informed Care Preschool provides a variety
of therapeutic and early intervention services for
young children ages 2-5 with a history of trauma.
Suicide is the third leading cause of death for youth 15 to 24
years old.
Supporting Community Connections, or SCC, is a suicide prevention
outreach program for transitional aged youth (TAY) in the foster,
homeless, and LGBTQ communities. The program seeks to prevent
suicide by offering connections and links to housing
opportunities, mental health services, women’s health providers,
LGBTQ resources, and other social services to transition aged
youth.
The Partial Hospitalization Program provides treatment in a day
setting to youth with depressive disorders, anxiety, bi-polar
disorder, unresolved issues of grief and loss, post-traumatic
stress disorder, psychotic disorders, and other behavioral health
disorders. Services also may address issues associated with
chemical dependency, recovery and relapse prevention.
Kaiser, Anthem Blue Cross, and Western Health Advantage insurance
plans accepted.
CRH integrates clinical expertise, client values and the best
research evidence into the decision making for client care. Our
staff stay current on their skills and training in order to make
a positive impact on the lives of our children.
