Our organization - The mission of DCCH Center for Children and Families/ Diocesan Catholic Children’s Home is to express God’s love by providing compassionate care and quality services to address the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of children and families impacted by child abuse, neglect, and trauma.
At DCCH Center, we access, stabilize, treat, and educate children and their families while facilitating changes in relationships, attitudes, and behaviors. Through an array of support and assistance, we strive to establish a safe and loving home environment. We help children and their families reshape themselves into a loving family unit and become productive, self-confident members of our community.
For 178 years, DCCH Center has served the needs of more than 5,000 children and families across our Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Our project - is Nourishing Hearts, which allows DCCH Center to provide healthy and nutritional meals and snacks to the 32 children in our Residential Treatment program.
The need – is financial assistance to support our food costs. This will ensure our kids are provided three healthy meals and snacks everyday for the length of their stay at DCCH Center, which on average is about 15 months.
