And having been in existence for over a century, St. Joseph's program has changed many times. But what has never changed are the most important principles of caring for children that are timeless. The facilities are exceptional. Newly built living spaces offer residential children a warm and enchanting home away from home. The environment is nurturing.
Every effort is made to maintain a loving, safe, fun yet stimulating place to live and learn.
Children entering their third-floor atrium step into a village of brightly colored landscape scenes which distinguish each of the six dormitory wings. In close-knit configuration below a large skylight are the entrances to separate wings for young, intermediate and older boys and girls, along with the houseparents who care for them. Two children share a room in the young and intermediate wings that have bunk or twin beds. Older children have rooms of their own. Complete furnishings are available but children are their own best home decorators.
