About "Glenn Home" ~ Established in 1903, the former Vigo County Home for Dependent Children, better known as Glenn Home, was located on a hill overlooking U.S. 40, about 5 miles east of Terre Haute in the small community of Glenn.  The Home ceased operation in 1979.  Currently,  the fraternity Pi Kappa Alpha of Rose Hulman Institute of Technology resides in the main building and keep up the grounds. 

The Main house and Boiler House still stand as well as three cottages, the African-American Children's home, and a gymnasium built between 1926 and 1949. The Main house and Boiler House were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. 

In September 2007, A memorial stone was placed for Glenn Home and the Home cemetery which is on the former grounds.  This newsletter outlined the progress and plans for this memorial, as well as welcomes input from former residents, staff, and other individuals formerly associated with the Home.  This project had been in the idea stage since approximately 2005 and finally was completed  (2007).  Subscribing to this newsletter will send you updates automatically.
