The founding of Cleveland Christian Home in 1900 marked the beginning of a legacy of care, when Rev. Henry Timme, a pastor in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), took in a family of youth left on his doorstep. Word spread quickly that Rev. Timme’s home was a safe haven for youth, and soon other abandoned or orphaned youth followed. In 1905, Rev. Timme moved the orphanage to the Bosworth farm on Lorain Avenue, where the home expanded to care for 60 youth. His vision and compassion laid the foundation for what is now The Centers’ H.O.P.E. Campus™, a continuation of that safe haven for youth who need it most.
