Overview

The CHRIS Counseling Center provides therapy and counseling to kids so they can deal with core issues contributing to their emotional and behavioral problems. Services are provided in the clinic, a child’s home, school or other community locations. Services are available to kids and families throughout the community as well as to kids in our residential programs.

JourneyZ provides safety, healing and a home to abused and neglected children with severe emotional and behavioral problems, ages 6-18, who are in the foster care, juvenile justice or mental health systems. Children receive intensive therapy, counseling and support at our Counseling Center. Eight homes provide "normalcy" to six kids each located in neighborhoods throughout metro Atlanta.

TransitionZ helps teenagers ages 17-24 make the "transition" from foster care, treatment facilities, detention or homelessness into self-sufficient adulthood. This program has special outreach to homeless teens and those identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning.

The Keeping Families Together program offers in-home, in-school, and in-community treatment for troubled children and their families. We create an individual plan for each family with goals and objectives. We prevent families from breaking apart and provide aftercare services to support families being reunited.

Camp CHRIS is the only camp of its kind in metro Atlanta. It is the "camp you can't get kicked out of." This nine week summer day camp provides physical, recreational and educational activities to Atlanta’s severely emotionally disturbed children, ages 6-16.
