Crossroad 128th Anniversary

October 17, 2011 marks the official 128th Anniversary of Crossroad.

Founded in 1883 as the Reformed Orphan's Home of Fort Wayne IN, we have changed and evolved much over the years, but we are still committed to a sacred mission of helping children and families encumbered by traumatic life-experiences.

128 years! 
It is a time for us to remember the noble mission and rich history of our agency.
It is a time for us to remember the importance of our daily work with the 
ultimate objective of creating promising futures for EACH child.
It is a time for us to remember that we do make and have made a positive
difference for young people and their families.
It is a time to celebrate the thousands of children who have come into our care.
It is a time to celebrate the employees, donors, and Board Members who have worked here before us and with us.
It is a time to renew our dedication to quality services and improved service delivery.
It is a time to renew our commitment to working together on behalf of children and families.
It is a time to renew our appreciation for employees who care.
It is a time to renew our passion for engaging young people in constructive living.

128 years!
What a vision to think we would not be needed in the future; 
that there would be no more children in need of our services.
What a responsibility knowing we will be needed for a long time.
What a blessing to be able to remember, celebrate and renew!

Thanks to everyone who makes it possible!.  Read more...
