A New Name and Logo
After two years of deliberation about our agency’s mission focus, we are pleased to announce that we will now conduct business as “Elon Homes of North Carolina”
Our new name and logo more accurately reflect our mission and focus to serve all children across North Carolina, including infants and children in traditional foster care, as well as older youth through campus-based residential programs such as The Village, which opened in partnership with Johnson C.
