Formerly Childhaven and Children’s Home Society of Washington
While our name is changing, what remains constant is our commitment to families, caregivers, parents and children. This is a merger designed to bring together the strengths of two of Washington state’s most impactful family services organizations. With our combined experience and reach, we’ll continue to expand the ways we can support, elevate and promote belonging for Washington families and their communities.
Family-Focused
We are still dedicated to the well-being of children and families together, as we believe that’s key to truly lasting change.
Impactful Growth
This merger allows us to grow and evolve as one organization, not for the sake of size but for the scope of direct impact for children, families and communities.
Community-Centric
Akin continues our community-focused approach to breaking down barriers, in partnership with local organizations, schools and community leaders.
Care Everywhere
Akin’s broad continuum of care ranges from birth to adulthood, leveraging the best of both organizations to advance child and family well-being, strengthen parent-child relationships, and develop a skilled child and family support workforce.
