Guiding children on a successful “flight plan” to the future

The Child Center of NY began in 1953 as a children’s counseling center in Queens. Today, we are a powerful community presence throughout NYC, reaching more than 21,700 children and their families each year and providing them with skills, opportunities, and emotional support to build healthy, successful lives.

The Dreams Take Flight campaign aims to create awareness of our work by taking what some might consider a mere time-passing activity -- making paper airplanes -- and turning it into a learning and sharing opportunity. At The Child Center of NY, we want our children's dreams to soar.
