The John A. Hartford Foundation is a private philanthropy working to improve the health of older Americans. After three decades of championing research and education in geriatric medicine, nursing, and social work, today the Foundation pursues opportunities to put geriatrics expertise to work in all health care settings. This includes advancing practice change and innovation, supporting team-based care through interdisciplinary education of all health care providers, supporting policies and regulations that promote better care, and developing and disseminating new evidence-based models that deliver better, more cost-effective health care. The Foundation was established by John A. Hartford. Mr. Hartford and his brother, George L.

Boys and Girls Village, Inc. was founded as the original ""Boys Village"" in 1942 by New Haven County High Sheriff J. Edward Slavin and Daniel J. Adley, a principal in a major Northeast trucking firm based in New Haven. Founded as a ""work farm for first-offenders,"" the agency has served a coed population of boys and girls since the mid-1980s and we changed our name to ""Boys and Girls Village"" in June 2002. Today, Boys and Girls Village is a federal IRS approved 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit agency licensed by the Connecticut Department of Children and Families (DCF) for our residential and therapeutic treatment components, and by the Connecticut Department of Education for our Day School for children with special educational needs. Referrals are received from DCF, managed care companies and from public school systems. The clients of Boys and Girls Village are children in crisis or children with learning difficulties who have experienced rejection, failure or abuse. Through the years, the agency has evolved into a leading therapeutic and learning facility offering residential shelter, clinical, after-school, counseling, special educational, foster and adoptive programs, family support services, and day programs for children and their families.
