At the forefront of change since 1848
Breaking Cycles.
Healing Hearts.
Growing Minds.
We’ve been healing hearts and minds for awhile now. Since 1848. And in that span of time we’ve been at the leading edge of care for children and families in the state of Kentucky. Helping children, adults and families secure outcomes that change futures for the better, revealing positivity and potential.
DCCH Center For Children and Families
We provide a safe place for abused and neglected children to live and heal.
This includes onsite residential treatment, as well as foster care and adoption opportunities for children who have been removed from their homes by the state of Kentucky. DCCH is also home to The Therapy Center, which offers counseling services to anyone who might need them. At the end of the day, we’re heart healers and are committed to helping those we serve have hope for a brighter future.
