Mission Statement
The Children's Crisis Center's mission is to provide child abuse prevention, intervention and shelter services to abused, neglected and high-risk children in Stanislaus county. Our immediate goal is to reach children at-risk and intervene with protective childcare and emergency shelter before they are harmed. Many young children in Stanislaus County are living within troubled, unstable families that place them at risk of abuse and neglect. These children are vulnerable and defenseless as their families deteriorate in unsafe conditions due to substance abuse, domestic violence, mental illness or extreme poverty. The CCC was established to protect local children threatened by these type of family circumstances. The CCC opened its first shelter in 1980 as a means to protect, comfort and advocate for local children impacted by family conflict, abuse, or neglect. Today the CCC has five shelters in home settings, allowing children and parents to separate during critical times of family instability and risk.
About This Cause
The Children's Crisis Center (CCC) is a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization established to shield children threatened by unstable, high-risk family situations. The Crisis Center has grown considerably since those early beginnings, both in scope and program capacity. The CCC's first shelter Sawyer House opened in Modesto, in July of 1980. Since then the program has expanded from that single location, to a countywide operation with additional children's shelters in the cities of Modesto, Oakdale, Ceres, and Turlock. In extending both the capacity and access to children's shelter throughout Stanislaus County, the CCC has been able to help greater numbers of children each year. During fiscal year 2014/15 alone, the CCC protected and cared for 3,247 high-risk children. For over 40 years the CCC has provided protective child care, emergency shelter, and crisis counseling to local children at risk. These services continue to safeguard children from families impacted by abuse, homelessness, addiction, mental illness, domestic violence, extreme poverty, and other unsafe family conditions. The CCC has maintained State licensure to provide quality care and protective shelter to high-risk children ages birth to 17 years; operating under a combination of Infant, Day Care, and School Age State licensures. In addition to child shelter, the CCC also administers supportive assistance to troubled parents, offering crisis counseling, guidance, and understanding.
