A long history of success
Officially incorporated in 1971 – Our long, successful history began when we were officially incorporated as “The Upper Moreland Youth and Drug Council, Inc.” in 1971.
Our name, “Aldersgate” – Our name was derived from our location at the Aldersgate House of the Willow Grove United Methodist Church. Initially, volunteers provided drop-in counseling, crisis intervention, information, and referral components. Soon, professional counselors and therapists were hired and we became designated as a Youth Services Bureau.
Today – over our five-decade history, Aldersgate has earned a well-respected reputation as an experienced youth and family social services agency, funded primarily by government contracts, county, and private contracts, grants, community donations, and client fees. Aldersgate Youth Services is non-sectarian and provided to residents of Montgomery County.
We and our clients thrive on success!
