New Economic Analysis by the Center's Research Team Demonstrates the Benefits of Lighthouse Youth & Family Services' Work
For more than half a century, Lighthouse Youth & Family Services has improved the lives of children, youth and families in Ohio by providing them with a wide range of services. Established in 1969, Lighthouse services include mental and behavioral health, juvenile justice, shelter and housing assistance, residential treatment, early intervention, and foster care and adoption.
