HAPPY BIRTHDAY! The Children’s Center of Hamden, founded in 1833, celebrates 190 years of caring for children!

We have served children and families for over 185 years, through World Wars, economic depressions and serious global health crises.  Through it all, and today, we continue to partner with our community to help children and families.  And many in the community have partnered with us.  We thank you all!  Thank you also to our essential employees, who demonstrate ongoing dedication and care to the children and individuals in our programs.

The Children’s Center Whitney Hall K-12 school educates our students with continued quality during the Covid-19 pandemic. SEE OUR PLAN HERE and HERE to learn more about how our agency and others can help you.

WELCOME

Our park-like campus is located at 1400 Whitney Avenue in Hamden, CT. Though many we serve are from the Greater New Haven area, we welcome youth and families from all parts of Connecticut.
