Our mission

Our Mission and Our Promise

Every child deserves a chance to thrive.

Walker’s Place is dedicated to providing children affected by parental addiction with positive outdoor experiences, supportive relationships, and opportunities to build confidence, resilience, and a sense of belonging.

We are beginning in Smith and Simpson counties, Mississippi, with a vision to grow through community partnerships, volunteers, and people who believe that every child deserves a chance to thrive.

We may not be able to rewrite the past. We cannot promise a life without hardship. But we can help create moments of safety, joy, connection, and hope.

We can honor those we have lost by showing up for those who are still here. We can honor the Walker name by extending the love it represents to children who need it.

At the heart of our mission
