KenCrest was founded by Sister Maria Roeck, a Lutheran deaconess, in the mill district of Philadelphia in 1905 under the name of "Kensington Dispensary." Within five years the organization opened a "River Crest Division" in nearby Mont Clare, Pennsylvania. The original mission of the organization was the treatment of tuberculosis. – more... In 1955 the agency redirected its mission under the guidance of another Lutheran deaconess, Sister Grace Jones. We began serving people with mental retardation and other disabilities. KenCrest continues in that mission today. In 1970 the two Divisions, the Kensington Dispensary and River Crest , merged their operations under the corporate name "KenCrest Centers." Since that time, KenCrest has broadened its area of service to include the five,county Metropolitan Philadelphia area and Delaware. – less – More from ZoomInfo »
