Our Mission

 

 

The New England Salem Children’s Village endeavors to provide a happy, loving home and environment for children in need unable to live with their families for a time. We provide a place where they can feel safe to heal and work through the struggles and challenges that life has thrust upon their young lives. 

Our vision is to provide a safe, holistic environment in which children and families are treasured and where every child in our care will experience a childhood that affords the basis for a fulfilling life. To accomplish this we:

  • Providing loving, compassionate, and therapeutic services
  • Providing a family structure to assist the child in meeting the life challenges they face based on non-violent values
  • Strive to follow the international philosophy of non-violence
    • Commercial television, toys and games of violence are not allowed on campus
    • Emphasis is put on outdoor activities with an understanding of the and appreciation of the environment 
  • Practice using a natural, whole foods, vegetarian diet
Teach children to respect the earth and its creatures and how to love, work and play in harmony with nature and all humankind.
