WYNONA'S HOUSE

WYNONA'S HOUSE About Wynona's HouseTwenty-five years ago, the Senator Wynona Lipman Child Advocacy Center (known as Wynona’s House) was founded in Newark, New Jersey to help children who have been abused or neglected. Wynona’s House revolutionized the process endured by children and families of Essex County coping with the aftermath of abuse and neglect. Today, we are a non-profit 501(c)3 facilitating a collaboration of more than 70 multi-disciplinary professionals helping the children of Essex County who have been abused or neglected. Wynona’s House coordinates a cross-systems collaboration that leverages both public and private resources to improve outcomes addressing the problem of child abuse, neglect, and maltreatment within the 22 municipalities of Essex County, including Belleville, Bloomfield, Caldwell, Cedar Grove, East Orange, Essex Fells, Fairfield, Glen Ridge, Irvington, Livingston, Maplewood, Millburn (and Short Hills), Montclair (and Upper Montclair), Newark, North Caldwell, Nutley, Orange, Roseland, South Orange, Verona, West Caldwell and West Orange). The multi-agency collaboration serves over 850,000 county residents and provides direct services to more than 950 abused or neglected children in a typical year. Learn MoreWatch Video View Larger
