Who We Are
Our Story
Hendrix Country Home was established in 2023 with the specific goal of providing community-based and trauma-informed care to children with emotional disorders. The areas of treatment include supportive behavioral, social, educational, and cultural, with a focus on female, high school-age children from 13 through 17 years old in the custody of DFPS. With the knowledge that there is a major need for the care of at-risk children and a limited pool from which quality caretakers can be found, a passion grew in our hearts to become part of the solution. Blessed by our own experiences of love and support from family, friends, teachers, and others who took the time to be kind to us in our own lives, we have come to believe that the proper support and encouragement can oftentimes be the spark that creates a great change in a child’s life.
Our Philosophy
Hendrix Country Home is a Residential Treatment Center in Rosenberg, Texas, on a one-acre property surrounded by farmland and cow pastures. It was established with the understanding that a focus on the simple pleasures in life such as seeing the stars overhead on a cool evening, hearing the leaves rustle in the trees as the wind makes its way across the field, gathering eggs from the chicken coop, and planting and harvesting fruits and vegetables from the garden, combined with a focus on community-based and trauma-informed care, can be beneficial to the mental health and overall well-being of at-risk children.
Our Mission
Hendrix Country Home is a safe and caring Residential Treatment Center with a home-like setting, completely dedicated to improving the quality of life for at-risk children with emotional disorders. Hendrix Country Home provides a safe, calm, and respectful environment designed to encourage, instruct, and monitor each child’s progress, ultimately resulting in a better chance for a better life. Children in care at Hendrix Country Home will gain necessary life skills through patience, understanding, and lots of love.
Our Desire
Our desire is to enable the children to meet their fullest potential, overcome their weaknesses, and to build on their strengths, ultimately allowing them to become good citizens in the society in which they will live. Through innovation, dedication, and loyalty, the children at Hendrix Country Home experience positive changes in their lives.
Our Program
