Our Programs: Child and Family Program

The goal of our Child & Family Program is to address issues before a crisis results in out-of-home placement of children.

The Child and Family Program deals with these issues while working to keep families together. We help remove the barriers that can prevent families from receiving the services they need.

Currently PCHAS has Child & Family Programs in the following cities: Abilene, Austin, Corpus Christi, Corsicana, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Kilgore, Longview, San Antonio, Temple, Wichita Falls and Shreveport, Louisiana.
