"Dedicated to the Christian healing and restoration of adolescent girls at-risk for failure for over 60 years!"

Admissions


    Are you looking for a safe place for your daughter?  Have you tried everything and nothing has worked?  Perhaps, we can help. 

 

    East Tennessee Christian Home offers a Christian based program for girls who are at risk.  Girls who are at risk to fail.... Girls who are lacking direction..... Girls who are looking for help but find only frustration.

 

    We offer a ministry to help those families in need of both respite and reprieve for girls who cannot remain due to issues beyond their control.  Our girls are basically good, but have made poor choices which has caused heartache and distress for their loved ones.

 

We require a one year commitment from both the family and child

 

Our typical residents will display one of more of the following issues:

  • Abuse Issue-physical, sexual, and emotional

  • Family issues

  • Acting out behaviors

  • Lacks social skills and acceptable communication skills

  • Low self-esteem

  • Has experimented with drugs and or alcohol

  • Makes poor choices

  • Has academic difficulty in school
