Our story begins in Omaha in 1892, when, due to epidemics, poverty and the difficulties of pioneer life, many children were left in need of parental care. CSI met the need in a revolutionary way – putting the well-being of children first and working to be a voice for the voiceless.
We’ve continued this tradition of support and advocacy for more than 131 years, expanding services, legislating to improve the lives of children and families, adding resources and growing to accommodate the needs of our community. Our rich history might surprise you! Learn more and discover the ways our past accomplishments inform our present and future.
