Home of the Innocents

Home of the Innocents (the Home) is where Louisville’s vulnerable children and youth find emotional, physical, and intellectual support that can transform their lives.

The Home provides our community with a range of important residential, treatment and community-based programs, more details of which can be found in the services section of this website.

Our programs include offering a safe haven for at-risk children; pediatric medical care; shelter and education for pregnant and parenting teens; crisis and intervention services; clinical treatment services and therapeutic loving foster and adoption services.

The Home also operates a pediatric convalescent center for children who are dependent on technology to sustain life, as well as children who are terminally ill.

Thanks to our many supporters, we operate world-class facilities that impact children’s lives throughout our region. For many of these children, this is where hope begins.

The Home really is the heart of our city.
