All children deserve to live in Safe, Decent, Affordable Housing… And a chance to just relax and be a kid...
But, did you know that Families are the fastest growing sector of the Homeless Population?
The 2007 HUD Continuum of Care Gaps Analyses for Bernalillo County estimates there are approximately 500 families with young children homeless on any given night in the city of Albuquerque.
The great news is that Cuidando Los Niños provides a place of Refuge, Hope and New Beginnings for children and their families.Our purpose is to ensure that every child experiencing homelessness has access to accredited childcare in a setting that supports the development of individual and family strengths while being a community leader and advocate for social change necessary to break the cycle of homelessness.
The mission of Cuidando Los Niños (CLN) is to provide high quality childcare and therapeutic services to meet the special needs of children experiencing homelessness and support services that assist and strengthen their families as they become re-housed.

Plenty!
Our new building is being built and we're on schedule! Located at 1500 Walter St. SE, right where the old building was - next to the John Marshal Multi-services Center.
“When we are really honest with ourselves we must admit that our lives are all that really belong to us. So, it is how we use our lives that determines what kind of people we are. It is my deepest belief that only by giving our lives do we find life.”
