What Are Children's Transitional Care Homes?
KenCrest was among the first organizations in the U.S. to pioneer a specialized transitional care model, empowering families to move medically fragile children from hospital settings to a home-like environment. Each KenCrest home provides a warm, family-centered atmosphere where children thrive through a community-based life model—participating in field trips, school programs, afternoons at the park, and other daily activities while receiving rehabilitative and clinical care.
