Brethren from local Churches of Christ met at Mars Hill Bible School to discuss the need and possibility of a Children's home in North Alabama. A promissory note was signed, borrowing money to purchase the old McGee school building and 3 acres of adjoining land.
(April 15, 1971) A general meeting was held to set in place a permanent Board of Trustees/Directors.
(May 1973) After extensive remodeling of the McGee school building, the North Alabama Children's Home began operation. Jerry Weems was the home's first Administrator, who along with his wife Rachel, also served as the first House parents for seven children.
(1994) Our name was changed to the Christian Children Home to shorten the name, reflect our broadened mission, and give reference to the strategic plan of incorporating more "Homes" under the guidance and direction of the CCH Board of Directors.
Between 1986 and 2000 several buildings were added to the campus:
1986: Pavilion constructed
1987: house parent's apartment added to the McGee Home
1989: Kent Cottage
2000: Caver Cottage
(April 2008) Our name changed back to North Alabama Christian Children's Home. After much discussion and prayerful consideration, the Board of Directors determined that the shortened Christian Children Home' did not provide adequate autonomy or identification for the home.
