About
Who We Are
Englishton Park is located in Lexington, Indiana, just off the Ohio River and 40 miles north of Louisville, Kentucky. The property on which the program resides was once the summer estate of former Indiana Statesman Captain William Eastin English. Upon his death in 1926, Captain English bequeathed the property to the state of Indiana to be used to help troubled children and their families.
For over 35 years a historic building on the Englishton Park estate has been the site of a summer program for troubled children from the surrounding area. That program continues to operate today.
In 2005 a residential program was created through a partnership with the Southeast Indiana Special Education Roundtable, the Indiana Department of Education, Englishton Park Estate, and Three Springs, Inc. to establish a residential therapeutic educational community for adolescent boys.
How We Help
Three Springs Englishton Park operates under a dynamic cognitive behavioral model with intensive group, individual and family counseling. Through a peer empowerment model, we provide addictions groups, experiential learning activities, living skills, conflict resolution groups, and special needs groups for children with adoption, divorce and grief/loss issues.
Additionally, residents and parents are provided with growth seminars and aftercare services. Englishton Park utilizes every aspect of the program to address the direct needs of residents and their families. In this therapeutic setting, every staff member is involved in accomplishing the common goal of reuniting families.
