To facilitate the work of NACCH, we must depend upon the efforts of dedicated Christian individuals who are willing to provide the security, love, discipline, and understanding to  the children of our home. We are blessed to have such a  wonderful staff to see to the daily  needs of our children at North Alabama Christian Children's Home.   Administrative Staff Executive Director Don Williams Secretary Cindy Garren Social Worker Melinda Jackson Maintenance Larry Taylor House Parents McGee Cottage John Williams & Ernest Brothers Kent Cottage Rodney and Melva Rice Caver Cottage Chris and Janice Moran     (Known as child care workers, house parents or cottage parents)      Our "House Parents" and "Relief Staff" are vital to the success of our program. They are expected to perform the major share of "caring" and counseling functions with the child while providing  on-going supervision. Children must be accepted as an individual; therefore, a non-judgmental atmosphere that is sensitive to the needs and feelings of the child must be created. As with any "parent"  responsibilities, a primary duty is to provide assurance, support and help in terms the child can use in their efforts to find and establish an identity for himself/herself.   House Parent Qualifications A high school diploma; or a GED certificate Training or experience in child development issues. Physical health adequate to participate, when appropriate, in the activities of children, as documented by the required medical examination.
