Our Story
Founded in 1929 by Grace Bauer, Tippecanoe County’s first probation officer, Bauer Family Resources began as a community initiative to prevent youth from falling into trouble. Over the decades, the organization has expanded its reach, now serving children and families across a nine-county area in West Central Indiana. The mission of building hopeful futures is at the core of every program and service offered, ensuring that every child and family can aspire to a life filled with success, strong family ties, and positive community connections.
