Who We Are

Crossnore School & Children’s Home is non-profit residential foster care home for children in crisis from North Carolina. With two campuses – one located on 85 acres in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain town of Crossnore, NC, and the second located on 212 rolling acres on the edge of downtown Winston-Salem, NC – Crossnore School & Children’s Home provides a sanctuary of hope and healing for these children.
There are five homes on the Winston-Salem campus and 14 homes on Crossnore campus that serve the everyday needs of 130 children. The children live under the close supervision of two cottage parents. Cottage parents are dedicated professionals who provide love and assistance 24 hours a day. Crossnore School & Children’s Home is licensed to serve children from the ages of 1 to 21 on our campuses.

Our educational services include a K-12 public charter school, Marjorie Williams Academy, on the Crossnore campus, and day treatment programs in the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools.

Therapeutically, we are able to offer multiple forms of therapy on campus ranging from family and play therapy to substance abuse and EAGALA (Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association) therapy. Other therapies include intensive in-home services and outpatient therapy clinics.

Our community-based services include single-family foster care and therapeutic foster care in Winston-Salem. These services are expanding to the Crossnore community as well.

Crossnore School & Children’s Home offers a holistic approach to treating the whole child emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. Crossnore’s theory of change model is unique to the organization.
