At its locations in Louisville, Lexington, Owensboro, Paducah and Bowling Green, Bellewood provides a safe haven and an opportunity for a better life for all children.
Since its inception in 1849, there have been dramatic changes in the type of children referred to Bellewood and the services offered, but our mission -to try to heal the wounds of neglect, abandonment and abuse among children and families - remains the same.
