While our name is changing, what remains constant is our commitment to families, caregivers, parents and children. At Children’s Home Society of Washington, we aim to offer holistic support and reach our families before they are in crisis, to identify their unique needs and set them up with resources and prevention services to manage life’s challenges at a time when additional support is needed mo

"For 130 years, Akin’s core purpose, or “why,” has remained the same: we seek to improve the wellbeing of children so they can truly thrive and flourish. However, we are changing the “how,” by shifting our approach to child well-being towards one that is aligned with prevention, reflecting a deeper understanding and commitment to equity and justice. Akin’s transformation is centered on making the mental model and business model shifts that align with a compassionate ethic of care rather than the ethic of surveillance and blame that predominates in the child welfare system."

Merry worked with Akin's Early Head Start program to set goals for herself and her family. With the guidance of SMART goal-setting, personal perseverance and dedication, Merry completed all her goals, including the completion of her nursing degree at UW! She later joined Akin as a team-member and offered personal experience and perspective to other families.
