Milne Boys Home is the city-owned home for wayward boys. Operated by the New Orleans Welfare Department, Milne is famous for its most notable non-resident, Louis Armstrong. Armstrong, contrary to popular lore, was never a resident at Milne. The Armstrong Manhood Development Program, however, provides assistance to wayward boys. This tiny, non-denominational chapel still stands as testament to the many boys whose lives were salvaged by the programs at this venerable institution.
