Welcome to Bethany
Bethany Children’s Home has been providing residential services for children and youth since 1863. Today we serve a school-age, co-ed population of youth who are unable to live on their own with a family. Typically, these young people require more structure, programming, and highly-trained staff than is possible in smaller group settings. While Bethany is independent, it is closely related to the United Church of Christ and serves over 300 youth each year on its campus in Womelsdorf, Pennsylvania.

Let Us Hear From You
Whether you're a neighbor, friend, supporter, or child welfare professional, we would like to hear from you. Also, if you haven't been on our beautiful campus lately, we would love to arrange a visit. So, give us a call, get involved, and become part of the Bethany family!
