Mission Statement
Child’s Play Foundation, Inc.
The Child’s Play Foundation, Inc is a 501
© (3) organization founded in 1998 for the purpose of providing
therapeutic intervention for children who have experienced trauma or
behavior difficulties. Utilizing evidence-based interventions in
practice, the Child’s Play Foundation employs licensed mental health
therapists who provide child centered and family friendly
interventions that reflect sound clinical practice.
Child’s Play Foundation continues to
expand its scope to provide play therapy and play therapy training.
In addition to securing funds for therapies and training, the
Foundation also provides resources in the field of play therapy,
sand tray play and all expressive therapies that assist children as
they process their thoughts and feelings.
In the belief
that God creates all children and that families are designed for the
purpose of protecting, training and nurturing children, Child’s Play
Foundation is based on Biblical principles. Utilizing references
from neurobiological as well as psychosocial literature, parents are
taught a model of childhood brain development and behavior that
encourages family mutuality and co creation.
Although this
format of intervention is most sought after by a Christian
subculture, parents from all walks of life find it refreshing and
understandable.
Behavior is seen as an outcome of the information, thoughts and
feelings that have networked in the child’s brain and the child’s
environment. |
