Our Mission is to provide a continuum of quality services, which promote the emotional, behavioral, educational and physical development of children, adolescents, and their families.
The Children's Aid Home provides an exciting future for our children, families, and staff. Our facility, the Shoemaker Home, is 37,420 square feet and is located on the Wheeler Campus, a 55-acre property located near the Somerset Commons on State Route 601.
The Shoemaker Home on the Wheeler Campus (Est. 2001)
The building includes single bedrooms for all residents in three wings. The building design allows for two additional wings. The building has many private rooms for family visits. A multi-purpose room is used for dining and recreation. There is a classroom and counseling rooms in the Partial Hospitalization wing. Our new facility gives us the opportunity to expand our programs as the need arises.
