Holy Family Institute

Since 1900, Holy Family Institute has cared for children and families in our community. Holy Family Institute provides help, healing, and hope to children and families throughout Western Pennsylvania.

For more than 125 years, we have been guided by a mission rooted in faith, hope, and love. Founded in 1900 by the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth as a refuge for orphaned children, Holy Family Institute has grown into a trusted cornerstone of the community.

We create and sustain alternative learning and career training environments, offer compassionate family support services, and help individuals address significant financial limitations. You can always find us in the schools and neighborhoods with the greatest need.

Today, we operate a continuum of care that includes three schools, six community-based programs, and three programs for immigrant youth.
