Vera Lloyd began as a day nursery in 1910 to care for the children of women working at the local mill. The day nursery evolved to a more permanent place for children as more children were left at the nursery because of family illness or poverty. In 1923, Vera Lloyd was established as a home for the full time care of neglected children. At Vera Lloyd, youth learn independent living and social skills in a family home environment to prepare them to secure jobs and become successful, contributing adults. We serve over 200 youth and their families annually, fulfilling our mission to “share Christ’s healing love with children, youth and families in crisis.” The Laurence E. Schmidt Center is a program under the direction of Vera Lloyd. Its mission is to provide confidential, compassionate care to people seeking emotional, behavioral and spiritual healing and wholeness. The center is dedicated primarily to the needs of clergy and their families, but its programs and services are open to everyone. It is a safe, professional and confidential place where ministry of all denominations can find support and individual care for themselves and their families. It is a place of rejuvenation, restoration and renewal. Vera Lloyd has benefited from outstanding, long term leadership, a highly competent staff, and a committed and active board of directors making it one of the state’s premier facilities for long-term residential care for youth ages 8 to 18, an emergency shelter program for both boys and girls and a transition program for boys and girls re-entering the community from youth detention. Vera Lloyd is a service agency of the Synod of the Sun, PC(USA). The campus is located in Monticello, Arkansas in the Presbytery of the Pines and the executive offices are located in Little Rock, Arkansas in the Presbytery of Arkansas.
