    Hispanic Culture with Katherine

    When discussing what our next blog topic would be, we came across the idea of discussing Hispanic Culture. We want our supporters to know that Hispanic Culture is important to us and why. We decided to ask Katherine, our director of Clinical Services for her help! I wanted to keep Katherine's answers to the questions in her words, so I decided to write this blog in a question and answer form. What is your role at The Tree House, Inc.? I am the Director of Clinical Services at

    Walking In Their Shoes

    Imagine yourself as a child, you’re nine years old. For as long as you can remember it has always been just you and your mother. Life hasn’t always been easy as your mom is gone a lot, working two jobs so that you have a roof over your head and food on the table. In between working, you and your mom cook together, read together, and you help her around the house. One day your mom brings home a man, someone you have never met before. She tells you that this man is her boyfrien

    Do you know the signs & symptoms of child abuse?

    Did you know that ONE in TEN children experience sexual abuse by their eighteen birthday? Child abuse is a difficult subject for anyone to talk about and often times, people don’t believe that it can happen to them, their relatives, friends, co-workers, or neighbors. But the truth is, that most people will know at least one person who has experienced child abuse. At The Tree House, our job is to talk about this difficult subject and to help children and families heal from chi

    Spotlight on our Director of Forensic Services

    In our last blog post we focused on our Forensic Services program. This week, I thought what better way to follow up our previous post than to focus on our Director of Forensic Services, Jason Simpson! Jason began his journey with The Tree House in 2010 as an intern. After his internship ended he was offered a position in Family Services as the Coordinator for supervised visitation. Jason enjoyed helping with supervised visitation, but found he liked working more in an ever c
