Each year, we highlight an initiative to spotlight local organizations doing great work for the community. This year, we are supporting DCCH.

DCCH Center for Children and Families offers essential services such as residential treatment, foster care, adoption support, independent living, targeted case management, and outpatient therapy. They provide a safe place for abused and neglected children, from across the state of Kentucky, to live and heal.

For more than 175 years, DCCH Center for Children and Families has served the needs of more than 3500 children and families. At the end of the day, they are Heart Healers and are committed to helping those they serve have hope for a brighter future.
