Throughout her life, Alice Pepper of Elizabethtown has served as a mentor for area youth. This passion has stayed with her since she was a child living at the now-defunct Glen Dale Childrenâs Home.
Born in Jefferson County, PepÂper moved to the Glen Dale Childrenâs Home in 1954 when she was 10. Founded in 1915 and initially known as the Kentucky Baptist Childrenâs Home, the campus closed in 2009 and tranÂsitioned to a new facility in Elizabethtown known as the Glen Dale Center, designed to provide housing and opportunities for at-risk teenage girls.
When Pepper attended the Glen Dale Childrenâs Home, she said she was one of more than 200 children who were there because of family neglect or abuse.
