Meet Rudy Bear
This friendly face greets all who arrive at The Children’s Place. Warm, welcoming and playful, Rudy Bear shows children this is a Place for them.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
The Children’s Place celebrates people from every color, race, ethnicity, place of origin, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, socio-economic status, family structure, and those with differences in ability.
The Children's Place on Wheels
Our new mobile mental health unit The Children’s Place on Wheels is hitting the road, bringing mental health services to young children throughout Kansas City.
