Children’s Safe Harbor has appointed Reynaldo Saludares as President of the Board of Directors for the 2024-2026 term. The advocacy center is also preparing for a new, expanded facility to further its mission of supporting child victims of abuse.
Reynaldo Saludares has been named President of the Board of Directors for the 2024–2026 term at Children's Safe Harbor, a children's welfare center that helps kids who have been abused or traumatized. Saludares joined the board in 2019 and has previously been Vice President and Treasurer. He starts his new job when the organization goes through significant changes, such as building a more prominent center in Conroe that will be finished in late 2025.
Children's Safe Harbor has helped over 28,000 kids in Montgomery, Walker, and San Jacinto counties for over 26 years. They do forensic interviews, therapy, and advocacy all in one place, using various professional skills.
"It makes me humble to be in charge at this important time," Saludares said. "Our new building will almost double our space, which will let us help more victims and their families." We want to promote fairness, healing and hope while involving the community in planned fundraising events.
Saludares has much leadership experience, being Vice President of Texican Oil and Gas, LLC, and a Reservoir Engineering Manager. His BS in Petroleum Engineering is from UT Austin, and his MBA is from Rice University.
Children's Safe Harbor continues to fight for kids who are at risk, and it is also growing to meet the needs of the community as it grows.
The Montgomery County Historical Commission will dedicate a historical marker at the former Montgomery County Hospital in Conroe at 9 a.m. Monday, Sept. 15, on the front steps at 301 1st Street.
