Children's Receiving Home

What Children's Receiving Home does

Children's Receiving Home of Sacramento (CRH) is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1944 by the Junior League and Rotary Club of Sacramento, operating a single campus at 3555 Auburn Boulevard in Sacramento, California. The organization delivers trauma-informed residential and outpatient services to abused, neglected, and at-risk children and youth, organized across five core programs: a 24-hour Welcome Center for foster youth aged 6-17 (one of only three such designated centers in Sacramento County), a Residential Treatment Program for youth aged 6-21 with mental, emotional, or behavioral challenges, a Partial Hospitalization and Day Treatment Intensive program for youth aged 12-20 needing hospital diversion or post-hospitalization care, the Sprouts Trauma-Informed Care Preschool for children aged 2-5 with trauma histories (class size capped at 10), and the Supporting Community Connections (SCC) suicide-prevention and outreach program for transition-aged youth aged 12-25 in the foster, homeless, and LGBTQ+ communities. CRH's underlying technology consists of evidence-based clinical and educational curricula rather than software platforms, specifically DBT, CBT, TF-CBT, the Creative Curriculum, Incredible Years, and TheraPlay Sunshine Circles, supported by nationally accredited clinical staff.

CRH's revenue model is a hybrid of public funding, insurance billing, and charitable giving. The organization is in-network with Kaiser, Anthem, Magellan, and Medi-Cal, and receives referral-based revenue from Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado, Nevada, Yolo, Amador, Sonoma, and other Northern and Central California counties. Secondary revenue is generated through individual donations, corporate sponsorships, recurring giving (Growing Hope Club), workplace-giving platforms (United Way, Combined Federal Campaign, Benevity), stock donations, vehicle donations, IRA charitable distributions, and special events such as crab feeds, golf tournaments, and TopGolf events. A $1 million capital campaign ("Honoring a Legacy, Building Their Future") is active for 2024-25. In 2024-25 the organization reported serving 298 youth from foster, homeless, and LGBTQ+ communities, offering 385 recreational and skill-building activities, and achieving a 75% symptom-reduction rate among day-treatment clients. CRH is nationally accredited by the Council on Accreditation, state-licensed, holds a 2022 Candid Gold Seal of Transparency, and has received commendations from the City and County of Sacramento and the California State Legislature. The organization employs 251-500 staff and is led by CEO Glynis Butler-Stone.

Direct peers

• Fred Finch Youth & Family Services: Oakland, California nonprofit providing residential treatment, mental health services, and specialized programs (including autism and transition-aged youth). Strong peer for CRH's Sprouts and SCC programs due to overlapping age range and trauma-informed model.
• Sierra Vista Child & Family Services: California nonprofit delivering residential treatment, mental health, early intervention, and family preservation services for children impacted by trauma and abuse. Closely aligned with CRH's Welcome Center, residential, and Sprouts-style early childhood programming.
• Hathaway-Sycamores Child and Family Services: Southern California nonprofit operating residential treatment, mental health, and foster/adoption programs for children and families. Directly comparable to CRH on program mix (residential + outpatient + early childhood) and on county-contracted nonprofit funding model, though serving LA County rather than Sacramento.
• Casa Pacifica Centers for Children and Families: Ventura County-based nonprofit providing residential treatment, crisis stabilization, and community-based mental health for children and adolescents. Directly comparable to CRH on residential + PHP + community-based continuum and California county funding model.
• Maryvale: Greater Los Angeles nonprofit offering residential treatment, mental health, and early childhood services for children affected by abuse, neglect, and trauma. Direct peer to CRH on residential + early childhood + wraparound service mix under a California nonprofit structure.
• Aspiranet: California-based nonprofit providing foster care, residential treatment, behavioral health, and wraparound services for children and youth. Highly comparable to CRH because it operates similar county-contracted programs across multiple California counties and serves comparable foster and TAY populations.

Broad incumbents

• Boys Town: Nationally recognized child and family services organization operating residential programs, behavioral health, and family support across many states. Broader incumbent peer to CRH with overlapping residential and behavioral-health programming for at-risk youth, but at much larger national scale.
• KVC Health Systems: Large multi-state nonprofit providing foster care, residential treatment, behavioral health, and in-home family services. Comparable to CRH in foster/residential/wraparound service mix, but operating at significantly greater scale and geographic breadth.
• Childhelp: National nonprofit addressing child abuse and neglect through prevention, residential treatment, and advocacy. Adjacent peer to CRH on mission and trauma-informed residential programming, but operating at national scale rather than Sacramento-region focus.

Regional players

• Stanford Sierra Youth & Families: California-based nonprofit providing foster care, residential, mental health, and wraparound services for at-risk youth and families. Strong comparable to CRH on county-contracted foster and behavioral health programming, with regional overlap but serving different California counties than CRH.
