Mission: The ranch family is committed to strengthening character by modeling christ-centered values, transforming hearts and changing lives by loving, nurturing and serving children and families, while providing safety and hope within a residential setting.
Programs: We are licensed by the new york state office of children and family services and house boys and girls who are troubled, abused, neglected or come from troubled families. We provide an alternative living arrangement for these boys and girls who cannot live in their own homes or under any other family care. We strengthen character by modeling christ-centered values. We transform hearts and change lives while maintaining our core values, which are bible based, people oriented and with an obedient spirit. We have been serving children and families for over 30 years and over the last three decades, approximately 700 kids have called the ranch home. We have great success with the children because we provide productive activities, vocational training, teach them responsibility and accountability, and provide individual and family counseling which helps reunite the boys and girls with their families. Some of the children that we have helped over the years have later returned to the ranch to mentor new boys and girls that have been placed with us. We have approximately 213 volunteers who give generously of their time to assist us in our great accomplishments.
