Description
All of the children residing within the group homes are prepared for eventual independent living and if they choose, they may continue to reside at the JAFCO village until the age of 24 while they attend college and work part /full time. When they are ready for the responsibility of driving, each child receives a donated pre-owned vehicle of their own which offers them full independence. For our children who are away at school, we keep their rooms intact so they can come home for breaks. JAFCO is their family and we will be there for them for as long as they need us.

Marsh Childrenâs Emergency Shelter
Description
Provides an immediate safe placement for a child who has been a victim of abuse, neglect or abandonment. Children (ages birth to 12) are placed in the shelter by state protective investigators often in the middle of the night or by parents and family members who themselves are in crisis. Children stay at the shelter typically for a few days, until a relative or a foster family can care for them, but on occasion when no family is available, children have lived with us for up to two years.
