Hillcrest Girls Home Offers Care and Hope for Runaways
Hillcrest, a private Indiana home for girls, houses 9 of 18 capacity while taking in runaways referred by welfare and courts. Under young houseparents Dave and Ann Selent, the facility emphasizes close adviser relationships, nonjudgmental treatment of runaways, and activities like a July 4 camping trip. The home rejects race and creed discrimination, relies on church support, welfare funds, and United Fund grants, and faces misconceptions about its purpose.
