Memories will Help with the History of the Great Falls Receiving Home

As part of the 60th Anniversary celebration, Board of Directors President Shawna Severson is asking for help to preserve the history of the home:

We're collecting stories and memories from former residents, staff, foster families, CPS partners and community members whose life has been touched by the Receiving Home over the decades.  Those stories help us honor our history and the thousands of children who have found hope, stability, and care through our doors.

If you have a story to share with them, contact the CRH in Great Falls via email at admin.gfcrh@charter.net for details.  Submissions can be made anonymously.
