Childhood should be about playtime, homework, and friends
Stack up blocks with your mouse or finger.
Childhood takes many turns from cradle to college, onward to careers, and into life’s great adventures.
Sometimes kids and families need a little extra support on their way through life that can’t wait.
Susie’s Place provides critical help after reported instances of crimes involving kids.

Building capacity for a rainy day
We’re building capacity to support Susie’s Place today and tomorrow amid irregular and volatile funding.
Federal and state funds are diminishing. It’s up to local communities to support the necessary work of supporting kids and families.
A donation to Susie’s Place is a donation directly in your community
Across our Avon, Bloomington, and Terre Haute centers, every child and family walks into a comfortable, safe, and child-first Center. No matter where they go, there’s a safe, comfortable place — for every child, every time.

Supporting Prevention Education
Prevention education helps kids in classrooms as well as adults in our Darkness2Light workshops recognize, react, and respond to the signs of abuse.
Indiana law requires all kids receive age-appropriate abuse prevention education, but does not allocate a budget to help schools.
With your support, Susie’s Place is helping close this gap and has for over 162,000 K-12 students since 2017.
Become a monthly donor
Monthly donations have the greatest impact in helping us build capacity. They provide predictable budgeting for you and us and really add up over time for maximum impact.
- Monthly donations of $20 are helpful!
- $100 donations are most common among monthly donors
