ABOUT US
Development of the organization began in 1832 by Father John Martin Henni and was officially established in 1837 to aid the homeless children left as a result of a cholera epidemic. In 1861 St. Aloysius Orphanage moved to its current location in Bond Hill and the orphanage was run by the Sisters of Notre Dame for 130 years.
St. Aloysius has evolved over the years to meet the changing needs of the community and today, serves as a pro-active resource to children and families in the Greater Cincinnati area. We are an independent, non-denominational social service agency assisting children with mental and behavioral health problems through a number of different programs.
St. Aloysius is a safe place for parents, educators, family and friends to turn to for answers and solutions in dealing with children displaying cognitive, behavioral, and emotional health problems. Many of the children here have been referred to St. Al's by their local school districts for our innovative and result driven programs. Our staff members work closely with these very troubled children to set a path for success and prepare them to transition back to their local schools. In some cases, this can be a daunting task. Counselors, therapists, teachers and caseworkers strive to provide excellent care and guidance to these high-risk children, their families and ultimately their community.
