Mission Statement

The mission of Isabel’s House is to provide immediate refuge for children ages birth to 12 whose families are in crisis. By partnering with families and the community, we will strengthen families and prevent child abuse and neglect.

Service Area

Isabel’s House welcomes any family seeking help, without geographical boundaries, but most of the children who stay at Isabel’s House reside in Greene and the immediate surrounding counties.

Funding

Isabel’s House is primarily funded through generous private donations, including individual, family and corporate gifts & sponsorships. Additional funding for Isabel’s House comes from grants and foundation gifts, as well as a renewable state contract from the Missouri Department of Social Services, Children’s Division. Every gift matters and every dollar is needed to maintain the highest quality of care for kids and to support families in crisis.

12 Month Goals

In 2021, we reached a significant milestone serving over 5000 children. As we enter our 15th year providing free, private services to local families in need, we’ll be focused on continuing to improve our trauma-informed and evidence-based practices and deepening the impact on the parents and children we serve. Additional goals include, navigating the new impacts of COVID-19 while continuing to serve kiddos and families safely, and welcoming a new executive director, Vickie Dudley.
