The mission of Lighthouse Youth & Family Services is to advance the dignity and well-being of children, youth, and families in need.

Lighthouse Youth & Family Services is a multiservice agency providing social services to children, youth and families in southwestern Ohio. Operating since 1969, Lighthouse is nationally recognized as an innovator in services for families in crisis, for homeless youth and young adults, for youth learning to become
self-sufficient, and in foster care for children and youth who have experienced abuse and neglect.

Lighthouse operates the area’s only direct access, around the clock sanctuary for homeless, abused, neglected or abandoned youth; and a juvenile corrections facility with a success rate more than double that of traditional facilities. In all, Lighthouse operates over 15 different programs and a charter school.

At any given time there are over 500 children and youth in Lighthouse residential care. Each day Lighthouse staff members serve over 2,000 children and families through its community based services. Last year, the agency served over 6,000 young people and families.
