Bellewood, Brooklawn plan to merge

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Bellewood Home for Children and Brooklawn Child & Family Services says they are looking at a merger they believe will help both agencies provide better care for abused, neglected, and homeless children and their families.

Each agency cites the realities of having less money at a time when need has increased.  The chairs of the two boards, Mary Kate Poling, President and CEO of Brooklawn, and Brad Williamson, Senior Vice President of Administration and CFO at Bellewood and the agency's interim CEO, are working on the merger plan.

They hope to have a merger proposal later in the year.
