Pike County Children and Youth Services would like to recognize the
Milford Methodist Church. The church has agreed to supply the Pike County Children and Youth Services with “Go bags” filled with necessary items to provide to children who are being taken into care. Often times, children are unable to bring personal items with them. These "Go bags" are intended to make the transition a bit easier. "Go bag" items will include blankets, clothing, toothbrush, toothpaste, socks, toys, or stuffed animals.
The agency has also received approval to use church space to facilitate visits for families as the demand for meeting space has grown. This will enable families to conduct multiple visits, as well as accommodate the needs of working parents and foster parents.
