Crossroad Children's Home
Fort Wayne, Indiana
December Mission-A-Month ~ Crossroad creating promising futures for children, whatever it takes.
Hope
Many Children - either because of who they are or because of what’s
happened to them - have emotional and behavioral diffi culties.
Crossroad is where they get help, healing and hope.
Values
Children who come to Crossroad learn to value themselves and
others. Values provide the solid ground the children need as they
learn, change and become “Valuable” adults.
Stability
For decades, judges, educators, social service professionals and
parents have turned to Crossroad for help with troubled children.
Crossroad has become the rock of certainty for its children, and for
those who love and care about them.
Crossroad is a non-profit treatment center for emotionally troubled
youth. Founded in 1883 as “Th e Reformed Orphans Home of Fort
Wayne, Indiana” by the Reformed Church, it was later named Fort
