Beacon Light Adult Residential Services is happy to name Karianne James as February's Employee of the Month! 😍
The nomination form for Special Circumstances read: “Kari is always a wonderful worker and this month, Kari went outside her comfort zone, once again, and took on a shift in a Ridgway group that she was not familiar with to help out another agency with staff coverage. She was well received and the staff stated that she did a great job while there for her shift. I am proud of her for taking that step and trying out new things and she should be proud of herself as well!”

Our Story

Beacon Light Behavioral Health Systems was founded as the Beacon Light Mission in the late 1800’s to provide care to children abandoned or orphaned by the early oil and lumber industries. The agency became incorporated in 1903 and the name changed to The Children’s Home of Bradford.

As the needs of our society have changed, the agency has evolved into a private, not-for-profit, social service agency providing quality, professional, education and behavioral health services to young people and adults. Today, Beacon Light Behavioral Health Systems is doing business with names for three separate companies that make up Beacon Light. Those companies are the Children’s Home of Bradford, which holds the management company of the agency, The Children’s Center for Treatment and Education, which all treatment programs fall under, and Ramsbottom Center, Inc. which is the adult Developmentally Disabled Division of the organization. Overall, Beacon Light Behavioral Health System's continuum of care includes Emergency Shelter Placement, Forensic Mental Health Services, Residential Treatment (RTF), Education programs, Community Based programs, Outpatient Services, and long-term residential services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Beacon Light is proud to be a Joint Commission Accredited mental health organization that believes in the following mission: "To advocate passionately for the individuals and families we serve."
