Philosophy

Grace Bauer founded this agency more than 85 years ago based on a passion to nurture troubled youth and giving them a second chance – a passion that would ultimately cost Grace her life. Though our agency has undergone significant challenges, growth and changes throughout the years, Grace’s original passion and resilience remains at the very heart of our work, empowering children and their families to thrive. Bauer works with families with limited resources who seek guidance and opportunities to improve the quality of life for their children. Bauer is a local, non-profit, social service organization that delivers an array of services to improve the lives of children. Bauer Family Resources celebrates a long history of partnership with the community to serve the needs of at-risk children and family members. Beginning with Grace Bauer’s original vision, our agency continues to evolve to meet challenges and break the vicious cycle brought about by poverty, neglect, abuse, addiction, and violence.

Location

We are Danville but service all of Hendricks County. We are located off of 36 past Cabin Coffee before you get to Walmart. We are across from Beasley’s Orchard.

About our program

We offer tuition-free care for Infants and Toddlers as well as Preschool for 3-5. We also take the whole child into consideration. We make sure each child has a dental and medical home. We make sure children are screened for speech, vision, and hearing. We refer when the family and/or teacher has any concerns with delays to provide early intervention. We work with the families to provide education for parents that they are seeking as well. Parents are partners with us.
