Leo A. Hoffmann Center, Inc

The Leo A. Hoffmann Center began operation in November 1979 as a program for juvenile delinquents in response to a growing need for residential treatment services identified by the Brown and Nicollet County Human Services Board. In 1983, the Center became a private, non-profit corporation specializing in the treatment of adolescent males who engaged in inappropriate or harmful sexual behavior. Organizational downsizing, as well as programmatic and organizational restructuring created opportunities for the formation of improved, comprehensive, strength-based, multi-modal, multi-disciplinary, and individualized, treatment facilities. Program staff from Evergreen and North Cottages continue to focus on creating and maintaining safe environments for clients and staff in order to promote a sense of belonging, pro-social learning, and positive change.
