== Founder ==
Charles Dickinson was a congregational minister who served at Boston’s Berkeley Street Temple from 1887 - 1900. Dickinson was instrumental in expanding the accessibility of the congregational church by creating a ministry of smaller neighborhood churches, rather than the larger churches that catered only to the wealthy. A pioneer in new methods of residential child care and social services, Dickinson founded Kurn Hattin Homes based on a long-term view of societal reform through proper education and social preparation of youth.〔Thwing,Charles F. ''Friends of Men: Being a Second Series of Guides, Philosophers, and Friends''. Ayer Publishing, 1927. p.269-270.〕
