Program Information Since our founding, McKinley has provided services to children who are survivors of abusive environments, often related to drug and/or alcohol abuse, abandonment, and physical and psychological difficulties. Many children arrive at McKinley depressed, sad, angry, and dealing with incredible traumas. At McKinley, they have the opportunity to grow and thrive in a nurturing, empowering environment.\r\n\r\nMcKinley was founded and continues to operate as a true resource to the community. With widespread ties to hundreds of individuals, families, and neighborhood groups, McKinley provides direct services for some of the community\u2019s most vulnerable children and adults.
