So. What Does Maryhurst Do. Anyway...?
At Maryhurst, our residential programs, community-based homes and our outpatient clinical programs all work to serve children in the greatest need.

Maryhurst’s community and transitional living programs offer tools that prepare survivors of abuse and neglect for better, more hope-filled futures. And lastly, the team at Maryhurst Renewal partners with children, adults and families who are hurting to find the right combination of support, ultimately clearing barriers to success at home, at school, and in the community. Renewal provides one-on-one, group and family counseling in office, home or school-based settings.
