Child Crisis Center of El Paso
Child Crisis Center of El Paso is listed in Bridal Quince and El Paso Family guides.
The Child Crisis Center of El Paso was founded by George and Mary Russell in 1979 is response to abuse their 2-year-old grandson had received to provide emergency shelter relief to children 0 to 13 years of age. The mission of the center is to protect children from abuse and neglect by providing shelter, advocacy and family support services.
Along with its shelter activities, the Child Crisis Center provides child abuse and neglect prevention through parenting programs with the Fatherhood EFFECT Program, El Paso HOPES and the Military Families Veterans Prevention Program (MFVPP). In addition to the parenting resources, they have a program called Teen Talk, which is a comprehensive sex education program that delivers curriculum to area youth which is meant to discourage underage pregnancies.
Have been giving donations there for years, love their commitment to helping others. They are great

6 months agoI'm working with my boyfriend and Mrs Lucilla Najera in a project that they are working on for the children and the meeting was outstanding. The staff is wonderful and the faculty is as home like as possible. Thank you for all that you do.

2 years agoI was a child when i moved into this home. My mom was struggling with her abusive boyfriend at the time, and he kicked out of his place. Moved into my Aunt's but she wasn't very nice to us, so my mom grabbed my brothers and i and she dropped us off at this place. I remember crying every night because she wouldn't call us during the day, but the staff would always comfort me. I still remember my room, the hallways and the play/living room area. My room was on the corner of both hallways, two bunkbeds and a twin bed in it, and my bed was the one by the window. I had tinkerbell pillowcases and princess blankets lol, and i remember the staff would sit during the night in the hallway incase we needed something, it made us feel safer too. I also remember a racoon always getting into the trashcans outside and it would drive the staff crazy haha. I remember this one day we woke up super early and got dressed, and we went on a trip to watch a baseball game! Best day ever !! Anyways, my point is that this place took my brothers and i in and they made us feel safe, they were there when we needed a shoulder to cry on and they helped us out so much while we were going through so much at home. We were there for a couple of months, maybe like 3 but lemme tell y'all, nicest people ever! & the trips to the park were always my favorite!! I can even say that i'm still friends with a set of twins that we met there! They were my roomates, and we have eachother on facebook and talk every now & then. So one thing is for sure, that if you need someone to trust your children with, i would recomment this place so much!
