Over 40 years of Safe Kids, Strong Families.
Who We Are
Child Crisis Arizona is entering our fifth decade helping our community’s most vulnerable children and families. In times of crisis, we are there to help. When no crisis threatens, we are there to strengthen families, build resiliency and prevent crisis situations.
Child Crisis Arizona’s mission is to provide children and youth in Arizona a safe environment, free from abuse and neglect, by creating strong and successful families.
We do this through prevention, intervention and education programs designed to support the thousands of children and families who may be at risk. All of our work centers on our vision of safe kids…strong families.
You can read about all of these programs and their impact in our 2019 Community Report.
