There are many sibling groups at CSC.  Presently we have groups of two, three, four, six, and nine.  Many of the older brothers and sisters in these sibling groups cared for their younger siblings before they came to the shelter.  There are also many children without siblings here, but this does not mean they have noone to look after them.  The older children do a good job of helping the younger ones feel at home at CSC.  Each of the resident houses house about 30 children at a time.  Within these houses there are big brothers and sisters to look out for the younger ones.  During the summer the roles played by each child become more noticeable.  The children have more time to spend as they please.  It can be pleasantly surprising to see who is helping the aunties with the babies.

The workers and staff give care, support, and love to the children.  The children also provide care, support, and love for each other.
