Since 1883, Family & Children’s Place has turned hurt into hope for children and families in Louisville and Southern Indiana. Since 1883, we have been building stronger families by preventing, stopping, and healing child abuse and neglect.
Through our doors, children and families find resilience, safety, and healing:
Our HANDS program is a voluntary home visitation program for new and expectant parents that helps families build healthy and safe environments for their children.
Our Greater Louisville Head Start program offers comprehensive child development services for children from birth to age five focused on the goal of increasing school readiness for children from low-income families.
Our School-Based Services program supports academic success, promotes substance use prevention, and strengthens family engagement to empower youth and their communities.
Our Child Advocacy Center is Kentucky's largest, and the only site that is co-located with law enforcement and child protective services. Our multidisciplinary team engages a network of professionals in a child-centered approach to coordinating the investigation, treatment, and prosecution of child abuse cases, while keeping children safe and supported.
Our Visitation & Parenting Services program offers supervised visits for families and children in foster care that provide safe, conflict-free access and promote healthy relationships. Our team provides parenting assessments and teaches parenting skills that support the goal of family reunification.
This is Family & Children's Place. We envision happy, healthy children and families...free from abuse. Will you join us today?
