As Indiana's largest therapeutic foster care provider, The Villages offers a statewide continuum of care that addresses the increasingly complex needs of abused, neglected and abandoned children. Your generous donation allows us to fulfill our mission and make a difference in the lives of children and families through our various programs. Foster Care By placing children in specially prepared nurturing homes, we re-establish bonds of trust between a vulnerable child and the adult world. Foster families receive specialized training and 24-hour access to services and support. Adoption The Villages offers private, international and special needs adoptions. We provide preparation, education, placement and support throughout the adoption journey. Transitional Living By supporting young adults who are leaving the child welfare system with life skills training in a community-based living environment, we give them the opportunities they need to become independent, productive members of society. Healthy Families By strengthening parent-child relationships in the early years, we prevent problems later. Our services to new parents include education in child development and assistance in using community resources. Children's Village The Villages provides quality child care and early childhood development services through our Children's Village locations in Indianapolis and Bloomington. These state-of-the-art centers provide care to children 6 weeks old to kindergarten age. Family Services By working with families who have dedicated themselves to making necessary life changes, we strive to preserve or reunify families according to their unique needs. Services include family, group and individual counseling, assessment, skill-building and mentoring.
