Another name change came in 1940 when Hillside Children's Center was adopted and a goal set: "for every child, a fair chance for the development of a healthy personality".
Hillside assisted in placing these "Kodakids," as they were called, with the families of local Kodak employees or in foster homes for the duration of the war.
In 1965, Hillside broadened its mission to helping "dependent, neglected, learning disabled, emotionally disturbed, socially maladjusted, and delinquent" children.
In 1996 a new parent organization, Hillside Behavioral Health System (HBHS), was formed in order to provide services more efficiently and effectively.
In 2004 Hillside absorbed Snell Farms Children's Center and Adoption Resource Network, Inc.[1] Headquartered in Rochester, New York, the organization works with youth and families facing a wide range of behavioral and emotional challenges.
