ABOUT US

For 85 years, Marywood has adapted and expanded services to respond to the needs of the young women and children it serves. The mission of Marywood is to provide shelter and support to children, while seeking to build nurturing families for a lifetime.

We continue to carry out our mission for children by:

connecting pregnant and parenting women with resources
and sheltering young, homeless mothers and their children
creating permanency through adoption
providing protection through foster homes

Marywood's programs are nationally accredited through the Council on Accreditation, a national organization that brings best practices to social service agencies.
