Indiana United Methodist Children's Home, Inc. was organized by Angie Godwin, a Methodist Deaconess and ordained minister. With great zeal and ability she operated a home for orphans in Greencastle, Indiana. In 1922 the Methodist Church officially became involved, and the children's home moved to the present Lebanon, Indiana, campus. Over the years many changes have occurred and the program has developed to meet the needs of the children it serves.
The philosophy at Indiana United Methodist Children's Home, Inc., involves a genuine concern and love for each child. Our multi-faceted treatment program aids youth who cannot cope with the everyday responsibilities of family living. Broadly stated, our purpose is to begin with the child's initial level of development and use every available resource to raise that level according to the child's potential.
