Review for Methodist Home Of Kentucky, Nicholasville, KY, USA
I served as Executive Director of the Methodist Home from 1999-2002. Before that, I served on the Board of Trustees for eight years. I saw the Home reach young people, change lives, restore confidence, and make families whole. I saw families adopt children through a thoroughly vetted process that placed the child with the right family. I saw teenagers aging out of the traditional 12-18 years old program and enter a new initiative called Transitional Care for youth 18-21, in which they learned life skills, job management skills, and coping skills. In a word,I witnessed abandoned and abused young people being loved and renewed by a skilled, underpaid staff of caring professionals. The Methodist Home of Kentucky reaches out to kids who often literally have no where else to go. I have seen miracles of compassion and restoration of hope.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
The changes needed here are new facilities that better care for special youth. The present buildings are antiquated and inadequate for helping troubled young people achieve their desired outcomes. There are plans being implemented to rectify that situation, and I will donate toward that high goal.
