Welcome to Connie Maxwell Children’s Home!
Connie Maxwell is a home for some children who have been abandoned, abused , or neglected and some who have been placed by loving caregivers going through difficult situations. In either case, children have a safe, secure, loving environment at Connie Maxwell. In addition to the main campus in Greenwood, Connie Maxwell Children’s Home provides residential care and family support through satellite locations in Chesterfield, Mauldin, Orangeburg and Florence as well as referral services in Summerville. Each year more than 200 children of diverse needs and backgrounds call Connie Maxwell home. Some children stay as little as a few months, others for many years. Some arrive alone, others with siblings. Most are between the ages of six and eighteen. Children who remain through high school graduation receive financial support for college.

Families are experiencing pressures, internally and externally, like never before and Connie Maxwell is there to assist those in need. The Pee Dee Campus located in Florence serves as a home for eight teenage girls. The girls attend local schools and are encouraged to be involved in extracurricular activities. Families are urged to visit. Parenting workshops and recreational activities are conducted on a regular basis with the girls and family members. The girls attend a local South Carolina Baptist Church and are very much involved with all its activities. The Pee Dee Campus also serves as a regional office for CMCH and coordinates placement applications from 12 counties east of Columbia. If you would like to be involved by caring, email
