The Indianapolis Business Journal put Christel House’s ambitious expansion plans in the spotlight with a front-page article. President and CEO David Harris shared the vision of expanding in countries Christel House currently serves, as well as two new countries. “Our North Star, and this really came from our founder, Christel DeHaan, has been to move kids experiencing significant poverty out of poverty,” Harris told the IBJ, emphasizing our comprehensive approach that extends beyond academics to include nutrition, health care, and career support.
