Not everyone can adopt, but anyone can help make a lasting difference in the life of a child.Children’s Home Society of Virginia (CHS) is a full-service, private, nonprofit 501(c)(3), non-sectarian child-placing agency, and one of Virginia’s oldest adoption agencies. Since its charter by the Virginia General Assembly in 1900, CHS has been guided by the fundamental belief that every child deserves a home. To date, CHS has successfully facilitated placement of more than 12,500 children into safe and permanent homes.CHS’s mission today is to find permanent adoptive homes for children of all ages throughout the commonwealth, and to provide critical support services to birth families, adoptive families, and past and present adoptees. Its full spectrum of programs and services includes working with the departments of Social Services to find adoptive homes for the 1,300 youths in Virginia foster care, and impactful ongoing post-adoptive counseling to maintain successful families after adoptions have been finalized. In addition, CHS offers unbiased 24/7 pregnancy counseling at no charge, birth parent counseling, temporary infant care for birth mothers in crisis, family support groups, activities for adoptive families and children, and heritage and search services for adult adoptees. CHS is also proud to be one of only three Virginia recruiters for Wendy’s Wonderful Kids, a signature program of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption – a national nonprofit finding forever families for children in foster care.Headquartered in Richmond since 1900, CHS also has a Fredericksburg office.
