Mission:
At TLC Foundation Inc, our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing home environment to adolescents who cannot stay at home due to family disruption, parent-child conflict or the lack of a suitable home environment.
TLC House is centrally located in Manchester, CT.
Convenient to Manchester Board of Education, the Town of Manchester Recreation Department, recreational fields, pool and programs, the Board of Education, shopping and bus transportation stops.
Our History:
TLC has been in operation since April, 1987. TLC has helped 173 students since then. In 2020 we have had 5 total residents so far and as of December there are 3 residents in the home. Some residents return to their own families, some are discharged to independent living and others remain at TLC through high school and the first couple of years of college and are given assistance with college and/ or work plans. TLC was the 1990 Connecticut Youth Service Association Program of the year. TLC is the quiet gem and success story that could only have happened because of the support of Town of Manchester and the belief of its Board of Education.
Regardless of how long a child stays at TLC, we provide a safe home while allowing them to continue with their education and thrive in the community.
