Children’s Home Network (CHN) has been a cornerstone of Tampa Bay for more than 130 years, ensuring that every child has the chance to feel safe, supported, and hopeful. Founded in 1892, CHN has evolved into one of the region’s most trusted organizations for strengthening families and protecting children from the challenges of abuse, neglect, trauma, and instability.

Through a network of innovative, trauma‑informed services, CHN helps families remain safely together, empowers caregivers raising their relatives’ children, and prepares little ones for school success. We also provide comprehensive developmental and therapeutic support for children and teens of all abilities, ensuring that every young person has the tools they need to grow, heal, and thrive. By surrounding caregivers with guidance, resources, and community, CHN strengthens the entire family system and builds lasting stability for generations to come. 

Each year, thousands of children and caregivers across Hillsborough and surrounding counties turn to CHN for guidance, healing, and hope. Rooted deeply in Tampa’s history and committed to its future, Children’s Home Network continues to strengthen the very heart of our community—its families—creating brighter, safer futures for generations to come.
