About Us
Blessing House is a children’s crisis care center, caring for children birth through 12, whose parents or caregivers are facing a crisis or emergency or who are experiencing a high level of stress that might put their children at risk of abuse or neglect.
Blessing House is open every day of the year and is staffed with trained employees who care for the children in a safe loving environment. We are licensed to care for up to 10 children at a time. We provide information and assistance to families to help them address their crisis.
Anyone can make a referral or request placement for their children at Blessing House. Placements depend on availability of space and the circumstances of the children and families. Families maintain custody of their children while they are at Blessing House.

"A Bath and a Nap for Moses"

It all started one day when Moses went with Sr. Mary to the Blessing House Car and Dog Wash. After he got his bath, he curled up for his nap and was thus the inspiration for this delightful book written by our own Blessing House friends.
This books tells the story about Moses who comes to Blessing House often with Sr. Mary to keep our children company and help them feel at ease. Moses was adopted through the Golden ...Retriever Rescue group, GRIN, and now shares his love with the children who stay with us.
This book is a great book to read with your children or grandchildren and is available at Blessing House now for $15. To obtain a copy of this book, just call us at 440-240-1851 or email us at support@blessinghouse.org.
All proceeds from this book go toward the care of the children at Blessing House.
