Overview:
The Eli Home for Abused Children was founded in March of 1983. What started as a group of volunteers in a bible study is now, 30 years later, a multi-faceted faith-based organization consisting of 3 shelter facilities, a counseling center, corporate offices, a very successful social enterprise and a place-based initiative program. Throughout The Eli Home’s history, our organization has a track record of innovation and cutting edge solutions, while at the same time having a culture of a “spirit of excellence” in the services we provide.
