Creating a lasting change

To nurture and empower children, youth, and families to foster a brighter future.”

We offer a safe haven for children in need within our community and the surrounding areas of Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas.

The Noyes Home helps heal whole families by caring for children and giving parents the time and support they need to solve life’s challenges. Some families are facing emergencies like homelessness or serious illness of a parent; others have children who are awaiting a foster placement, or children who are unable to perform successfully at home and school and need a fresh start.


The children who come to the Noyes Homes are primarily from St. Joseph and the surrounding area. However, the home does serve children from northwest Missouri and beyond. The Noyes Home is currently licensed for 45 children ages 0-18. School-age children are enrolled and attend school in the St. Joseph School District. We strive to keep the children at their school of origin.
