For 41 years, the Ranch has provided group home living to youth ages 10-18 that were referred by the Department of Social Services and the Department of Juvenile Services. In 2015, the Ranch decided to change their focus to serve men with substance use disorders.

Client Spotlight

I’m here writing this today to just kind of give an example of a good facility with people that actually care about us getting better. Now I’m not going to tell you that it is 100% flawless, I say this from a lot of experience that there is no such thing! But I assure you that for someone like me, this is the best. I came here such a broken-down man with no self-confidence or self-esteem after 50 overdoses and 9 heart attacks and now I have put myself back in school to get my high school diploma and I’m even going further than that. I will be the first in my entire bloodline with a college education! So, if yourself or a loved one is struggling with this demon do you really want to change and better yourself? If so, reach out to these people. I absolutely trust them to help anyone I care about or love. 

Sincerely,

A Very Grateful Client
