Our History
The Baby Fold began as a faith-based orphanage for infants and young children in 1902. It has now grown into a multi-service agency specializing in the care and education of children. Over the decades, The Baby Fold has been a source of transformational love for our youngest citizens. We focus on improving the lives of children and families by building safe, loving, and healthy environments through adoption services, foster care, special education, and family and community support services.
