Yahweh Center Children's Village
Castle Hayne, NC 28429 | (910) 675-3533The Yahweh Center is licensed as a child-placing agency for Adoption Services. We specialize in both adoptions and adoption preparation services. Currently the majority of adoption work is in the area of adoption readiness. Many of the Yahweh Center children have experienced not only family, group care, and foster placement disruptions but have also experienced disrupted adoptions. The agency prepares children for adoption by using the skills of staff with experience in adoption preparation and loss. We work in tandem with the legal custodians to recruit families and often prepare the pre-adoptive profile of the child for use in recruitment. Children are involved in creating their “life books†with staff and other skilled professionals such as their therapist and DSS workers. Children receive therapy that is treatment focused to prepare them for adoption. The children receiving these services are currently housed with other children receiving a variety of treatments. These children are still working on attachment issues and the Yahweh Center wants to help these children transition into competent loving family environments. Many times potential families can begin the process of unification while the children are working out their issues. Our agency specializes in children with RAD (reactive attachment disorder) condition and can help families deal with issues related to the disorder by offering training, counseling, and other services. In addition to Adoption Services, the Yahweh Center offers MAPP Classes ( Model Approach to Partnerships in Parenting ) to help parents learn effective communication and interaction with these children. Our agency is currently looking for 3 to 5 Families that are willing to be trained and certified as therapeutic foster parents. These families provide children a place to transition from group care to home care. The Yahweh Center is a licensed Mental Health provider and licensed also by the North Carolina Division of Social Services in providing child-placing services. Home studies and pre and post adoption services are offered.
