Purpose

At Josiah White's we realize that no family is exempt from tough times; it's a hard time to be a parent and a hard time to be a teen. At its core, Josiah White's offers hope and transformation through Christ to children, teens and families.

White's is committed to helping redirect, rebuild and restore troubled children, teens and families. Our services are rooted in a faith-based, Christ-centered perspective that emphasizes compassion and caring. This approach is shaped by more than 160 years of experience, and honed through evidence-based practices. We work to enrich the lives of children, teens and families through emotional healing, personal development and spiritual growth by delivering the right services at the right time.

We are more than a faith-based organization; we are a faith-living organization.

More than anything else, White's is a family. These are our children. And we accept and love them unconditionally just as Christ loves us.

Our children experience a change for good. Their perception of themselves and others has changed. Their understanding of life has changed. They become caring people and move into life with confidence. Their experience at White's can never be taken from them. Our continuum of care offers the chance for hurting children - no matter their age, background or situation - to receive the care, treatment, structure and counseling they need to experience healing.

History

Josiah White drafted and funded a plan to help "the most deserted of children." His goal was to help children in need obtain a quality education, grow in their spiritual development, and gain valuable work experience.

More than 170 years later, Josiah White's is living out the mission and vision of Josiah White, serving children, teens and families who are experiencing challenging times.

Josiah White's has grown from its founding in 1850 to become one of Indiana's oldest and largest nonprofit social services agencies serving children, teens and families, with offices around the state, including a residential campus in Wabash, Indiana.
