The first House of Refuge was established in New York City in 1825. It was created as a reform institution for juvenile delinquents, aiming to provide them with education and vocational training instead of punishment. This innovative approach laid the groundwork for the development of similar institutions across the United States.
The "House of Refuge" refers to a concept that originated in the 19th century, primarily in the United States, designed to provide shelter and rehabilitation for individuals, particularly youth, who were at risk of delinquency or homelessness. These institutions aimed to offer a structured environment where residents could receive education, vocational training, and moral guidance. The first House of Refuge was established in New York City in 1825, and similar facilities were created in other cities to address social issues related to poverty and crime.
