About Saint Catherines Center for Children Copson House
Saint Catherine’s Center for Children Copson House is a 24-hour residential program offering closely supervised support for 25 children aged 5 to 13. When children are separated from their parents or legal guardians, they are placed at the center to receive foster and residential care. The program’s main purpose is to help children heal from trauma and work toward reunification with their families.
To meet each child’s needs, the center offers a range of services focused on safety, dignity, and respect throughout the recovery process. Care plans are tailored to recognize the most urgent issues a child may face when returning home. While staying at the center, children participate in therapeutic activities individually, with their families, or in small groups, using approaches designed to be less restrictive. The center is also located near parks with playgrounds, ponds, and a walking trail, giving children room to be active, enjoy themselves, and explore the area.
