The Children’s Home is an agency of the Louisiana Baptist Convention and is governed by a 17-member board of trustees elected by the Convention to serve three-year terms on a rotating basis.

The Children’s Home receives no state or federal funding. Approximately 73% of all funding comes from individuals and churches. Less than 25% of funding goes to administrative costs. Less than 5% of funding comes from payment of services.
