Washburn Center For Children

Non-profit OrganizationsMinnesota, United States201-500 Employees

Washburn Center for Children is a Minneapolis-based nonprofit that provides pediatric mental health and related services through a community-based model. With a history of more than 141 years, it serves more than 4,200 Twin Cities children and their families annually, aiming to keep care affordable, accessible and culturally responsive by meeting families where they live, learn and play. The organization describes its mental health care as a safety-net resource for kids and families.

As a long-standing provider in the nonprofit health space, Washburn Center seeks to balance community needs with financial sustainability and staff development to sustain its mission over time. Generous donors support its ongoing ability to deliver these services amid persistent underinvestment in child mental health. A recent development is a partnership with Children's Minnesota, announced in December 2025, to offer therapy and family support that can reduce the boarding of children in Twin Cities emergency departments.
