Since 1970, the Home has provided nurturing care and life-changing services for youth and families in need. Our vision is to be a community leader that exceeds industry standards of care, pursues innovative practices, and equips youth and families to achieve healthy independence and sustainable success.
What we do
Located in York County, the Children’s Attention Home’s main objective has always been to provide a temporary care shelter in which a young person can experience a individualized attention and compassionate support until a permanent home can be found. The Children’s Attention Home continues to fulfill this objective after over 55 years of operation.

Who We Serve
The Home serves youth in foster care up to age 21 and young adults ages 17-20 at risk of homelessness by offering a temporary home, compassionate support, and individualized care for every child. The Home opened its doors in 1970 to serve children in crisis with shelter, loving care, and attention. Since then, the Home has cared for more than 9,000 children and today serves youth from all counties in South Carolina.
