Childsavers-Memorial CHILD Guidance Clinic

The organization provides trauma-informed children's mental health and early childhood education training to adults who care for and educate children. Childsavers is the only nonprofit in Virginia using a coordinated prevention and intervention model to address children's mental health, preparing them for school and helping them recover from trauma. Coupled with deep connections in our communities, our unique blend of services helps children hone the resilience they need to nagivate life's critical-and often toxic-moments. Childsavers is located in the east end of richmond, where life expectency data shows a CHILD born today in this community is expected to live 20 fewer years than a CHILD in a neighborhood 5 miles away. While the largest percentage of clients originates from this nearby community, our service-area forms a radius of 30 miles around our headquarters. Our CHILD development services programming extends to more than 70 localities throughout central and southwest va.
