About Us

Our History
In 1968, St. Francis Children’s Center started with one belief…the earlier children with special needs received assistance, the more opportunities there would be for them to achieve success.
Today, St. Francis Children’s Center is a nonprofit organization that serves over 1,200 children — from birth through high school — and their families throughout the Milwaukee area.
We are a team of educators, social workers, therapists and administrators devoted to working with children of all abilities to ensure that all children have the tools they need to succeed.
