Dr. Lorraine Golden, a visionary chiropractor, founded the Kentuckiana Children's Center in 1954, driven by the need to provide free chiropractic care for children with multiple handicaps from financially strapped families. Chartered by the Kentucky legislature in 1955, the center opened its doors in 1957 and significantly expanded its scope. A landmark achievement came in 1961 when Kentuckiana received the first federal grant ever given to an organization rendering chiropractic services, acquiring 11 acres and six buildings. Under Dr. Golden's leadership, it became a unique institution, combining chiropractic care with a special needs school and developing the first postgraduate two-year intern program in pediatrics. Dr. Golden's impactful career was recognized with numerous awards, including "Kentucky Chiropractor of the Year" and the "Heart of Gold" Award. The profound influence of chiropractic care, championed by Dr. Golden's work, is exemplified by "The Story of Justin". A severely challenged two-year-old, Justin's life was remarkably transformed by chiropractic adjustments, inspiring the author's lifelong support for Kentuckiana. Justin later became a medical doctor specializing in pediatric rehabilitation, a testament to the healing potential Dr. Golden championed.
