One Bridge To Hope

The Sunrise One Bridge to Hope (OBTH) is a transformative new program designed to serve adolescent females referred by the Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice. Operating as an Alternatives to Detention program, OBTH offers a compassionate and structured environment where young women can find safety, stability, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Located on the peaceful and historic campus of the former St. Catharine College in Springfield, Kentucky, OBTH will house up to 20 girls in a dormitory-style setting. Here, each resident will receive 24/7 care, including food, clothing, shelter, and the consistent support of trained staff dedicated to their healing and personal growth.

But OBTH is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to grow. The program is built around a holistic model that addresses the spiritual, emotional, and practical needs of each girl. Residents will participate in individualized mental health services, educational support, spiritual development activities, and life-skills training designed to prepare them for successful independent living. Whether it’s learning to cook, manage finances, set goals, or cope with trauma, OBTH is committed to equipping each young woman with the tools she needs to build a brighter future.

At its core, Sunrise One Bridge to Hope stands as a symbol of second chances—offering not just an alternative to detention, but a new beginning. With the support of the community and a dedicated team, OBTH will become a place where hope is restored, dignity is reclaimed, and lives are forever changed.
