Namaste Child & Family Development Center is a nonprofit-like organization operating in the individual and family services sector, focused on attachment-based treatment for emotionally distressed children and their families. Founded in 1989 by mental health professionals committed to the Attachment Model of Treatment, it originally established a treatment foster care program and has since expanded to eight offices across New Mexico, including Los Lunas, Albuquerque, Gallup, Farmington, Santa Fe, Taos, Las Vegas, and Roswell. The center provides attachment-focused treatment foster care and outpatient therapy, aiming to help children form trusting relationships with adults, address underlying attachment issues, and achieve measurable, developmentally appropriate outcomes. Its clients are children who struggle with attachment, presenting challenges at home, school, and in the community, with services designed to mitigate behaviors such as aggression, depression, and resistance to care by fostering healthier relational patterns. Namaste operates under statewide governance with an executive director accountable to a voluntary board of directors, and it is based in Bosque Farms, New Mexico. }
