Five years ago, we embarked on a journey to ensure that no abused child in Collin County ever goes without the services they need to heal. After analyzing multitudes of data, we learned that the child population in Collin County is projected to triple over the next 25 years, and we need to be prepared to serve three times as many children as we serve today.

Two years ago, we launched a Capital Campaign to raise $10 Million to build a second full-service facility in McKinney to meet the needs of children in the northern part of our county as the population of Collin County grows exponentially.

It has been quite a journey, with some miracles along the way. Miracles that came in the form of mind-blowingly generous gifts, and miracles that came in the form of donations that we never expected. Throughout this Campaign process, I have been so inspired by the generosity of the Collin County community, and their belief in our mission.

The work we do at the Center is transformative, both for our children and for our community. With the miraculous gifts we have received, we now have the opportunity to carry that transformation far into the future.

Our plan is to break ground for the new facility next summer, and for the facility to be fully operational by Fall 2022. We have more exciting days to come as we work toward ensuring that no matter how large Collin County grows, no child is ever turned away, and every child has access to the full range of services they need to heal.

Your generosity will make this a reality, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

With sincere gratitude,
Lynne McLean, CEO
