Services Details
CHINS, a local non-profit organization, has provided services for children and families in Otero & Lincoln Counties for over 30 years. CHINS employs over 100 dedicated professionals providing a variety of services designed to support and strengthen families.
Child Care
Child Development Centers provide care for over 350 children combined. Both Children's House and Full House are Nationally Accredited and meet the highest standards of care. Full House Too, our newest center, has begun the process to become accredited as well. Each center offers the NM Pre-K curriculum to assure school readiness.
CHINS provides counseling for children from age 2 to 18 and their families, who are having problems at home or school, including problems associated with divorce, abuse, trauma, aggressive behavior, anxieties, fear or social problems. Through early intervention, CHINS counselors help families resolve conflicts, prevent further problems from developing and help re-establish good family relationships. CHINS counselors utilize Play Therapy in working with younger children, which is the preferred approach for children ages 2-8.
CHINS works with our most vulnerable children through our Infant Mental Health (IMH) Services. IMH works with families early to ensure children birth through five have the necessary supports to make sure they thrive mentally and emotionally.
​​When families work with an OMH Counselor, it can help prevent more serious issues later in a child’s life and even into adulthood.
STEMÂ Robotics
CHINS also has a STEM program. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. STEM for kids develops creators, thinkers, problem solvers, doers, innovators, and inventors.
