Historical Note:
In 1840, the St. Joseph Aid Society was organized among members of the Catholic community
in Dayton, Ohio. Its purpose was to help poor, forsaken, and poverty stricken families. In 1849,
a cholera epidemic caused the death of many fathers and mothers. The Society changed its name
to the St. Joseph Orphan Society on August 5, 1849, and amended its purpose to provide for and
educate orphans of members of the Society. An assessment of twenty cents per month to support
children needing assistance was paid by the Society’s members. The children were placed in
foster homes. A committee was appointed to present a constitution and, at its September 23,
1849 meeting, a constitution patterned after the St. Aloysius Orphan Society of Cincinnati was
adopted. In 1857, the Orphan Society was formally incorporated according to Ohio law under
the name German Roman Catholic St. Joseph Orphan Society.
In 1854, a committee was appointed by the Society to obtain ground on which to build an
orphanage. The number of children needing care had increased and sufficient foster homes
could not be found to house them. In 1865, 16.5 acres of land across the Miami River near the
railroad bridge was purchased for $3,250. Additionally, on July 4, 1864 a new means of
providing support for the orphanage was instituted. On this date, members of the St. Joseph
Orphan Society and the Hiberians Benevolent Society marched to the fairgrounds for a grand
picnic following a mass at Holy Trinity Church. The first “Kinderfest” raised $288.37 and began
a tradition which continued until 1979 when the annual picnics were discontinued as a means of
raising funds for St. Joseph.
The 1870s were marked by expansion and building of the first permanent orphanage to house a
growing number of children. At first, only children whose father’s had been a member of the
Society were cared for, but because of the community’s needs, this article of the constitution was
disregarded and other needy Catholic children were supported. In 1872, the land purchased in
1865 was sold and 6.67 acres of land and building were purchased from Father Schiff of St.
Mary’s Church. On May 22, 1873, the first St. Joseph Orphanage, a five-room frame building,
was dedicated. The following year, the Orphan Society celebrated its 25th anniversary with a
membership of 300 and a record of having taken care of 56 children since its founding. The
orphanage soon outgrew its five-room cottage and plans were formulated to construct a building
on the acreage. The cornerstone was laid July 25, 1875, and on December 19, 1875 the new
three-story brick building was dedicated. The building did not have a furnace or running water.
Stoves were used to heat the rooms and water was obtained from a pump in the front yard.
When the last superintendents resigned in 1891, the Orphan Society made the decision to apply
to the Society of the Precious Blood for assistance. On March 16, 1891, four Sisters and one
Brother from the order arrived at the orphanage. The Society of the Precious Blood would
remain at the orphanage for the next 76 years. By the end of 1891, the number of children had
increased and two more Sisters came to Dayton. The Sisters had a furnace and bathroom
installed. They also open the third floor attic for bedrooms and had a chapel built. In 1898, the
4
first addition was added to the home at a cost of $12,000. Additionally, a ladies auxiliary was
organized “for advancement and improvement of the orphanage.”
Before the Sisters of the Precious Blood arrived, the children attended church and school at St.
Mary’s Catholic Church on Xenia Avenue. After the Sisters arrived, masses were offered in the
newly constructed chapel and school classes began on April 1, 1891. Religion, English and
German grammar, reading, writing, arithmetic, geography, United States history, and nature
studies were taught by the Sisters. The boys were given training in farming and manual arts and
the girls were trained in needlework, sewing and domestic duties.
In May 1905, a $25,000 addition, which housed the kitchen, bakery, laundry, and dining room,
was completed. There were 89 children in the home. During the same year, the “Orphans
Picnic” was opened to the public and the first mechanical rides were introduced to the Dayton
area. Further significant events from 1900 to 1949 included: the 1919 fire that destroyed the
upper story of the barn; the facing of the brick building with stone and the frame cottage
becoming an infirmary in 1935; the Sisters’ living quarters being enlarged, a sun porch built, and
the opening of the swimming pool in 1939; and the completion of a small log cabin as a
recreation and party room for the children in 1944.
By the centennial celebration in 1949, attendance at the annual picnic had grown to 50,000
people which required the support of 1200 volunteers. For the centennial, many activities were
panned including a May 30 Pontifical Mass of Thanksgiving, which was attended by 4,000
people, the annual picnic on June 26, 1949, and the Alumni Homecoming Day held on Sunday,
August 7, 1949.
During the 1950s, the number of “orphaned” children began to decline and services were
extended to include neglected, dependent, and troubled Catholic children within Montgomery
County. The new dormitory facility, completed in 1954, offered child care in a group setting for
elementary school age children (6-16) with the plan that they would eventually return to their
homes. Then, in 1958, as the population continued to decline, the Society amended its
constitution permitting referral of children living outside Montgomery County. Services offered
by St. Joseph emphasized the home-like atmosphere of the home, which allowed children to
develop strengths to meet individual needs. The Sister who served as group mother had the
responsibility for “molding habits of cleanliness, neatness, politeness, respect, responsibility, and
the many other virtues which is the duty of parents to instill into their children.” The children
attended school at St. Anthony’s. Friday nights were “allowance nights” and the first and third
Sundays were visitation times with relatives. In 1957, there were 1025 Active and Life members
of the St. Joseph Orphan Society and 866 Active and Life members of the Ladies Auxiliary.
The number of children referred continued to decline in spite of the dedication of the Society. In
1961, the Child Welfare League of America surveyed the community to determine what child
care services were most needed in the community. The League’s report suggested expansion of
services to care for troubled children with a program offering education, group therapy and
activities, family contact, and individual treatment.

In 1967, Sisters of St. Francis replaced the Sisters of the Precious Blood as care givers and
teachers. St. Joseph again had school on campus. The Administrative wing of the building was
completed in 1970 and included quarters for the Sisters on the second floor. In March 1972,
James H. O’Hara was appointed as the first Executive Director of the St. Joseph Home for
Children. Troubled children of all faiths were accepted for placement and the five Sisters of St.
Francis served as teachers and child care workers implementing treatment emphasizing positive
behavior. The seventies were also marked by the expansion of services to include adolescent
boys and girls. A group home for boys was opened in 1973 in Dayton View and Liberty House,
a group home for girls in the former convent at St. Christopher’s in Vandalia, opened in 1976.
Both were later phased out due to administrative difficulties.
L. William Streisel came to St. Joseph as Executive Director in 1978. During his administration,
the Sisters of St. Francis left and were replaced by lay staff in the school and the dormitories. St.
Joseph also began accepting placements of children from all faiths throughout the 88 counties of
Ohio. The picnic held in June 1979 was the last of the annual fundraisers. Problems arose with
the cancellation of rides and a ruling by the Postmaster that raffle tickets could no longer be
mailed to donors caused a significant decrease in proceeds and attendance.
In 1981, the Anchorage group home for adolescent boys was opened in Centerville. In the same
year, St. Joseph completed the transition from a Catholic orphanage to a non-denominational
treatment center and installed a new Executive Director, Richard Clair. In 1982, St. Joseph
changed its name to the St. Joseph Residential Treatment and Child Care Center. The name was
later shortened to St. Joseph Children’s Treatment Center. At this point, St. Joseph offered four
programs: Residential Treatment, Day Treatment, Group homes for adolescent boys and girls,
and Special Treatment Foster Homes. The children in residential treatment lived in the
dormitory building constructed in 1954.
The 1990s was marked by a major fundraising campaign known as the “Capital Campaign.”
From the funds raised, a number of residential cottages were open in 1995 and in 1997. The
Executive Director at this point was David Emenhiser. Programs offered by St. Joseph included:
Residential Treatment, Special Treatment homes, the Anchorage Group home for adolescent
boys, Day Treatment programs, the Alternative to School program, the Early Childhood
Intervention program, the Family Preservation program, and the Adoption Save program.
Children being helped ranged from 400 to 600 children per day.
The early 2000s saw one last fundraising campaign, “Budding Dreams,” which occurred from
2001 to 2004. Finally, in 2003 a decision was made to close the St. Joseph Children’s Treatment
Center. St. Joseph closed on January 31, 2004. The grounds where the orphanage stood are now
operated by The Glen at St. Joseph. The Glen offers single mothers and their children a safe,
positive place to live, as well as numerous services to help mother become better providers for
their families.
