~ a place in montana for adoptions ~

Through its long history, the home has molded itself to the needs of the times. In its first incarnation, the home was a place for women who had no other place to turn. Many had led troubled and dissolute lives. Some were victims of incest and rape. Many were unmarried and pregnant. The home was a safe and private place to go for a fresh start or to give birth.
From the 1940s through the 1970s, it was a place for middle-class teenagers to discreetly complete their pregnancies and give birth out of the scrutiny of their home communities. In those years, most of the babies were given for adoption, and the girls went home to their families.
