Who We Are

Mission: To help children succeed by adapting programs to the community as needed such as mental health services, child care services for mothers, therapeutic foster care, and workforce development for youth.

Eliada Homes is a nonprofit agency serving children and families in Western North Carolina. Eliada envisions a world where children’s needs are met in a caring environment, and children and families are empowered to succeed.

What We Do

Eliada provides a “cradle to career” continuum of services, including:

  • Psychiatric Residential Treatment and Level III Treatment: Children are provided residential care for up to one year while healing from trauma.
  • Foster Care and Therapeutic Foster Care: Children live with an Eliada Foster Family while awaiting adoption.
  • Day Treatment: Children living at home, in a foster home, or at Eliada attend school on campus instead of public schools to better meet their special learning needs.
  • Workforce Development: Older children who’ve spent their lives in foster care gain work skills while learning to be self-sufficient adults.
  • Early Learning: Children in the community attend Eliada’s five-star Child Development Center, Prekindergarten, Afterschool, or Summer Camp program.
