SECURITY

For the Children: The Marsh Children's Home provides a safe environment. The children at The Marsh Children's Home are under adult supervision at all times, whether they are at the Marsh Home, at school, at church or on an outing. Parents who relinquish parental custody to The Marsh Children's Home for child care are allowed supervised visits to their children, but are not allowed unsupervised access to The Marsh Children's Home grounds.

Additionally, because our primary concern is the safety of the children, all potential Child Sponsors are checked for criminal records and against the United States Department of Justice National/State Sex Offender Registry to ensure they do not present any type of threat to the children at the Marsh Children's Home. By applying to sponsor a child, potential Child Sponsors consent to this evaluation of suitability. Marsh Children’s Home reserves the right in its sole discretion to refuse any applicant for sponsorship or any donation.
