Holly Hill was chartered April 3, 1884, through a special act of the Kentucky General Assembly. Founded as Campbell County Protestant Orphan’s Home, the original facility was located in Newport, Kentucky and housed children whose parents had died or were ill and unable to care them. Because of advances in health care during the early 1900s, fewer parents were dying from chronic illnesses thereby reducing the number of orphaned children. Consequently, the agency turned its focus to meeting the needs of children who had been deserted or had experienced break-ups in their family.
In 1952, the home relocated to Cold Spring, Kentucky and changed its name to Holly Hill Children’s Home. Since that time, Holly Hill and its programs have continued to evolve. Although there are virtually no traditional orphans today, there are still many children who have become “societal” orphans. In 1987, Holly Hill was officially licensed as a residential treatment facility to deal with children who suffer from severe emotional and behavioral problems. The vast majority of the children served have been physically or sexually abused.
California is a home rule-class city in Campbell County, Kentucky, United States. The population was 83 at the 2020 census.
