Akin is the product of the 2024 merger between two of Washington state’s most impactful family services organizations, Childhaven and Children’s Home Society of Washington. With our combined experience and reach, we’re now able to offer expanded services, elevated connection and more comprehensive, wraparound support for Washington state families and their communities.

 From prenatal to adulthood, prevention to intervention, our programs and services are built upon more than a century of helping create nurturing environments and systemic improvements for families in the state. They provide a wide variety of services including behavioral health, early learning and family resource centers (which have helped reduce child abuse by 63%).
