Christian Heritage is a Nebraska-based nonprofit organization operating in the individual and family services arena. Its work centers on mobilizing churches across the state to become trauma-informed, gospel-centered communities that support vulnerable children and families facing adversity and trauma. The organization positions itself as a connector between faith communities and child welfare, aiming to shape how needs of children and families are addressed through church involvement and trauma-responsive practices. Based in Walton, Nebraska, the group serves a community-oriented mission with a focus on fostering resilience for Nebraska’s children through faith-based collaboration. Recent activity includes the introduction of a new tool designed to help churches grow into trauma-responsive communities, announced at a Church & Trauma Summit. The organization has seen leadership changes, such as the hiring of a director of development in 2017, reflecting ongoing organizational development and outreach efforts. Christian Heritage operates within the broader landscape of faith-based organizations dedicated to family and child welfare, seeking to influence local practices and support networks for vulnerable populations.
