Hillside Family of Agencies

About

At Hillside, we are deeply committed to partnering with youth, adults, and families to help them overcome challenges and realize their full potential. For nearly two centuries, we have been a pillar of support in our community, evolving from our roots as an orphanage in 1837 to a comprehensive human services organization today. We believe that every individual deserves a fair chance to develop a healthy personality and a successful life, regardless of the trauma or obstacles they may have faced. Our work is driven by a family-driven, youth-guided philosophy that prioritizes the unique strengths and needs of those we serve. We offer a wide array of integrated services, including behavioral health treatment, child welfare support, special education, and workforce development. Whether through our residential treatment campuses, community-based initiatives, or our Hillside Work-Scholarship Connection, we strive to build resilience and foster lasting positive change. We are proud to be one of the oldest and largest non-profit organizations in our region, continuously adapting our innovative programs to meet the changing needs of our community while staying true to our mission of service.
