Core Aspects of Care
Physical
Our physical bodies and environment can profoundly affect how we feel and process that world around us. Cumberland Hope will amply care for our children's bodies and minds through medical care, nutritious meals, healing natural spaces and exercise, animal assisted therapy and ways to contribute positively in our world.
Mental
Our psychiatric and therapeutic teams will not stop short to provide the best highly individualized care available to the children and families in our care. We will tailor therapies each child's trauma and developmental disabilities and barriers that prevent them from progress.
Spiritual
Spirituality is a key component to understanding who we are and how we can understand our trauma. Cumberland Hope is a place where everyone is welcome regardless of beliefs and we want you to feel comfortable. We will provide children and families access to Christian services, therapy and guidance without ever forcing children or families in our care. We believe Christ offers great healing and can be a huge source of strength in the midst of a broken world.
Whole Family
Our Whole Family Approach comes from our knowledge that there can be huge hurts and trauma to the whole family. The family is an integral piece of healing and we will not only support healing for the affected child but for siblings and parents. We will get to know our families deeply and work extensively as a family unit to give the best chances of healing possible.
