MLH is a unique state of the art facility which combines programs that provide a comprehensive, child- friendly approach to the difficult issue of physical abuse, sexual abuse and neglect. Prior to the construction of MLH, children were served in a variety of locations requiring multiple transports, frequently resulting in prolonged and fragmented care. We foster a nurturing environment which minimizes trauma to children and their families while increasing effectiveness in service delivery. This evidence-based national model has proven to increase prosecution rates in communities due to a more thorough and efficient approach. Since opening our doors in November of 2008, through medical exams, MLH has served over 7251 children and adults and provided over 12,000 services.
