Kentucky currently holds the HIGHEST rate of CHILD ABUSE per capita in the country. The pandemic and associated trials has brought many challenges to our community; but for the children already living in the state's foster system, this has brought even BIGGER challenges.
For 70 years, Boys & Girls Haven has been devoted to working with our community’s most vulnerable Children and Youth, to give them a home and a future. Please join our Chief Executive Officer, Amanda Masterson, along with fellow leadership members for a virtual look inside Boys & Girls Haven.
We will discuss:
The history of Boys & Girls Haven in Louisville.
Current condition of Kentucky’s foster system.
How COVID-19 has effected the state’s foster system.
What Boys & Girls Haven is doing to respond to the crisis.
Initiatives and programs to protect our youth’s future.
