FOURTH ANNUAL MANSION RIB FEST- CHECK!

It's become a bit of a tradition around here to send our kiddos back to school with our annual rib cooking competition, dunk tank, and (new this year) a giant slip n' slide! We're not saying that we're the best at summer fun...but we're pretty good at it😉

Coming up next is our back to school carnivals for our little kiddos in child care! Stay tuned!

We are so grateful for these young people! Thank you, Unity Christian High School Athletics for your support!

A New Chapter Begins in Moville 💙

The doors are officially open, and what a wonderful first day it was!

On August 3, we welcomed new faces to Crittenton Center's Moville Child Development Center. The halls quickly filled with smiles, play, laughter, and the joyful energy that comes from children learning and growing together, exactly as they should.

To the families who trusted us with this exciting new beginning, thank you. We're honored to be part of your children's journey and can't wait to make memories together in the months and years ahead.

Here's to new friendships, big discoveries, and a future full of possibilities. Welcome to the Crittenton family, Moville!

Next stop on Destination: Why-

We hear from Sioux City Career Academy's, Wendy Bryce. Crittenton Center and the Career Academy have had such great partnerships throughout the years, and we wanted to hear from some of their staff on the journeys they've been on, and what they hope for someone else's journey.

Wendy shares her fond memories of New York with family, as well as her hope for others navigating their own paths.

Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your story with us, Wendy! And stay tuned for more Destination: Why as we travel closer to our annual fundraiser, Passport to Possibilities happening on October 17th, 2026 at the Sioux City Country Club. Tickets and Sponsorship opportunities can be found at: https://crittentoncenter.org/news/passport-to-possibilities-your-ticket-to-an-evening-of-impact
