The Crisis Nursery & Respite Center (CNRC) is a 12-bed shelter and a free resource to the community. The CNRC is the only facility of its kind in Wisconsin, providing a safe haven to children age birth to 12 as families face homelessness, domestic violence, medical needs, or other emergencies. Children can stay a few hours or up to three days. In addition to care in times of crisis, parents are also able to request respite care for their children during times of high stress.
The Early Education & Care Center (EECC) is a full-service bilingual center that focuses on the education and social-emotional development of children ages 4 weeks through 12 years old. All children receive developmental screenings, create goals with parent input and track progress to ensure each individual child is meeting developmental milestones.
La Causa Charter School is a non-instrumentality charter school in the Milwaukee Public School District for grades K4 through 8th. Students are taught through a dual language/two-way immersion program in both Spanish and English. We combine culture, language and literacy to prepare your child for success with a focus on fine arts, science and careers in technology.
Choose La Causa because you are family here! We pride ourselves in the relationships we build with our foster parents and the supportive network that surrounds each family in order for them to care for the children and youth in their homes. Our staff are passionate about what they do and how they can support you in this challenging but rewarding work.
