CHILDREN'S FRIEND

Founded in 1834 in Providence, the agency started as a home for abused children and has evolved into one of the state’s most innovative human service agencies. Guided by our mission, Children’s Friend is the innovative leader in improving the well-being and healthy development of Rhode Island’s most vulnerable young children. By reaching children in their earliest years and by working with the entire family, Children’s Friend helps children grow up in the best possible environment while assisting their families to become self-sufficient.
