Charities

Created in 1978, the mission of Children’s House is to provide a safe, secure place for children to overcome the devastating effects of abuse and neglect, regardless of social or economic background. Children’s House is a friendly, home-like environment, providing assessment, childhood development services, education services and therapy, at no cost and in one location, sparing the child from going to multiple sites in order to provide for their educational, developmental, psychological and social needs. Of equal importance, families and caregivers also learn skills to strengthen their ability to nurture, raise, and educate their children.

The Centers for Children in Lowell is the latest addition to a network of 24 existing Arkansas pediatric clinics that are part of a working collaborative between the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Department of Pediatrics and Arkansas Children’s Hospital (ACH).
This program is the first step in creating a statewide system of healthcare accessibility for children needing subspecialty and developmental care. The Center for Children in Lowell currently offers 17 specialty pediatric clinics available to children in Northwest Arkansas, including Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers and Bentonville.

The Maternal Fetal Medicine program, a subspecialty of the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in the College of Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, deals with the management of high-risk pregnancies and is the only program of its kind in the state. This group of highly specialized physicians, nurses and other skilled medical professionals are committed to providing the best possible care for pregnant women.
