Tennyson Center In Denver To Close Residential Foster Care Program

The closure affects 13 children; six were already scheduled for placement through reunification, a foster home, a kinship home, or adoption. The organization is making extensive efforts to place the remaining children. The children in the residential program represent 13% of those served by Tennyson Center each year. The closure will not affect other Tennyson programs: its K-12 accredited school, community-based services, Families Together, outpatient services, and Child First programs.
