The Residential Program on the Nicholasville Campus of The Kentucky United Methodist Children's Homes is designed to help adolescents ages 12-17, many with histories of abuse, neglect, abandonment, and/or family trauma that have resulted in emotional or behavioral problems.
Our Nicholasville Campus is a Child Caring facility, licensed and regulated by the Cabinet for Health Services, Office of Inspector General. Our license allows for Residential Treatment and Emergency Shelter with Treatment. Many of the youth we care for have had multiple placements prior to coming to our program.
Our goal is to address the individual needs of the client and thereby stabilize them to build a better future. Our licensed clinicians work with our youth, their guardians, and involved parents to develop a plan that is designed to achieve success in treatment. Trained Residential Youth Care Associates provide 24 hour supervision and assist youth in establishing a healthy routine that allows for work on identified treatment goals.
Meets weekly to review the progress of each client.
We recognize the vital importance of family engagement throughout treatment. Our staff will work with families to support their ability to participate in their child’s treatment process as well as helping to facilitate family visits. Support with transportation and other financial and logistical barriers may be available.
