At Children's Impact Network, we're committed to generational, life-changing impact. That means there's a lot that goes into our ministry programs.
From serving children before a crisis occurs to being available when a child needs a home immediately, we make sure we're there every step of the way. And it all starts long before a child ever walks through our doors.
Here's a look at what that journey looks like.
Outreach and Prevention
By partnering with local churches in surrounding communities, we can impact families and prevent future crises. We do this by providing aid like food and water wells, completing community projects, and ministering to families in need.
These church relationships keep us connected to the community, so when a need arises, we hear about it and can respond quickly.
Rescue
When a child is abandoned, abused, or neglected, we're prepared to step in immediately. Depending on the country, we're notified by the government or through local partners.
We receive them into our home and begin a healing process through physical evaluations, trauma care, and a psychological support program. For many of these children, it's the first time they've ever felt truly safe.
Restoration
As the child grows up in the Life Center, we pour the love of Christ into them. They receive a quality education, while catching up and, in many cases, surpassing children's levels in the surrounding community.
But academics are only part of the story. Over the years, they grow more confident, full of hope, and prepared to live a life of opportunity.
Life Mentorship
After children legally age out of the Life Center at 18, they reach a pivotal moment. They have a foundation, but now come decisions and life-changing steps. We don't want them facing those alone.
The Life Mentorship Program supports them through college, seminary, or trade school, while pairing them with missionaries and church members for ongoing spiritual guidance. They stay rooted in community and continue growing in their faith.
This has been our most successful program for long-term, multi-generational change.
Missionary Program
Some of our children have decided after their college years to serve as a CIN missionary, serving at one of our Life Center orphanages and reaching back to help their brothers and sisters.
They know firsthand what it means to be received, restored, and sent out. Watching them turn around and offer that same love to the next generation has been one of the greatest joys of this ministry.
Forever Family
When a child finishes their schooling, they never leave the family. We continue to walk with them through mentorship and major life decisions, and we always make sure they have a place to call home, just like every child should.
Our missionaries have mentored our kids through new marriages and careers, guided their young families, and helped them establish multi-generational change. The impact doesn't stop with one life; it carries forward into the next generation.
