For more than a quarter century, Volunteers of America of Greater Baton Rouge has carried out a special ministry to some very unique Louisiana children — those who have been traumatized to the core of their being by sexual or physical abuse, chronic neglect or abandonment.
These children require intensive therapy and loving care to help them grow to lead normal, healthy lives. The Reilly Center for Children and Families, a program of Volunteers of America of Greater Baton Rouge provides a loving home environment for a small number of abused and neglected children from across Louisiana — eight children at a time.
