Welcome to Pope’s Kids Place!

Pope’s Kids Place provides individualized care for children and young adults with exceptional medical and behavioral needs to strengthen them, their families, and the community. This place changes everything!

How We Began

Through, his pediatric practice in Lewis County since 1979, Dr. Isaac Pope recognized a lack of services for children with special healthcare needs and their families. Commenting on the exhaustion and struggles of the families who had children with special needs, he said, “One thing I noticed was the disintegration of the families. There was no break, 24/7”.

Dr. Pope selected community leaders in health care, education, and real estate to be Board Members to form a 501c3 non-profit organization known as Lewis County Children with Special Needs. Later the name was changed to Pope’s Kids Place. After planning, fundraising, and hard work of many volunteers, respite care and pediatric medical services began in 1998. Additional services of dental care and preschool were added later.
