ChildBuilders

As the only non-profit organization in Houston promoting a primary prevention model, our mission is to stop child abuse, victimization and violence before it starts. This is done by training individuals to deliver programs that promote assertiveness, empathy, responsible decision-making, emotional control, and resilience. Our approach is unique in that we work on the "front end" of the issues before a child is harmed. ChildBuilders stands behind the simple truth that it is better to build up a child now than it is to repair an adult later; thus, our programs are designed to build resilient, safe, and mentally healthy youth who are equipped with the skills to overcome adversity.
