Our service area is Region 18- Clark, Floyd, Harrison, Scott, and Washington counties.
Services are provided in a variety of settings from home to school and community sites, such as parks, libraries, and restaurants. Visitation facilitation can occur at the therapeutic level and be provided at various supervision levels based on need (full supervision, standard supervision, intermittent supervision, and dual supervision). Our facility offers private, video-monitored visitation space, a full gym, and green space for play.

Community-Based staff members are skilled at working with families as they seek to overcome obstacles that have prevented them from functioning at their healthiest, most successful level. Our staff use a trauma-informed care approach, which seeks to understand and interpret the “why” behind behavior. Our Community-Based Program embraces the mission of Childplace, Inc. and uses an individual, client-centered approach to build on strengths and reinforce the inherent worth and dignity of each individual served.
Indiana Adoption Program Home Study Assessments
Childplace has a community-based contract with the Indiana Department of Child Services to conduct home study assessments for families who are pursuing adoption through the Indiana Adoption Program (IAP). Childplace staff are trained and certified in the Structured Analysis Family Evaluation (SAFE) model.
Counseling Services
Childplace Counseling Services provides services to children, adolescents, families, and adults in the Southern Indiana community. With seven, master-level licensed clinicians, credentialed in social work, family therapy, addictions, and psychiatry, Childplace Counseling Services provides therapy, psychiatric assessments, and medication management to numerous clients associated with the Indiana Department of Child Services and/or Probation. The counseling center accepts Indiana Medicaid insurance and maintains a contract with the Indiana Department of Child Services when Medicaid or alternative payment is not available. For DCS and Probation clients, the center provides therapy and physician oversight as they potentially transition through various levels of care at Childplace. This allows for a continuity of care and is extremely beneficial in assisting clients to stabilize through potentially stressful transitions; and often, clients continue to remain connected with their Childplace therapists and/or the agency's full-time psychiatrist after they transition home or into a permanent placement.
