Hinckley's vision for the facility followed the pattern of many institutional facilities at the time.

The farm would provide much of the food needed to care for children and the live-in staff, and provide a source of education and employment for the children.

In addition, like many other institutions, Good Will intended to provide a home-like atmosphere with small living units made up of children of various ages and activities that replicated family and community life.
