About

In Kentucky, a state with a top-five child abuse rate, Maryhurst is saving kids’ lives. Our work prevents abuse, restores hope, and empowers survivors.

At the first sign of conflict, Maryhurst’s counseling program partners with families to strengthen relationships and protect kids’ safety. For girls whose histories of trauma have left them without a safe home, our residential programs provide a place of healing. As soon as kids are ready, our transitional living and aftercare services create pathways to permanency, stability and better futures.

We believe that strong family relationships are the foundation of healthy growth. Some form of family development — be it strengthening existing bonds or building new ones — is a goal we set with every child in our care.
