Inscription
Women from the Methodist Training School founded Warioto Settlement House in 1908. Renamed Centenary Methodist Institute, CMI moved to this location by 1921. CMI worked with rural migrant families in the North Nashville area called Kalb Hollow, providing a health care clinic and instruction in domestic skills and childcare.
Children and teens participated in sports and clubs, directed for many years by Tom Page. CMI merged with Bethlehem Centers of Nashville in 1970.
