Welcome

Golden Heart Ranch® is dedicated to building a life center residential community where special needs young adults can live, learn, and work side-by-side in a harmonious and caring environment that is emotionally and physically safe.

Fact: 80% of special needs children are not able to move out of the home upon exiting the school system, because there is nowhere to go ... and the problem is growing.

JOIN OUR VISION OF HELPING THESE KIDS!
GHR® is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization
 

Support Us

As children with developmental disabilities become young adults, there are few acceptable options for housing or work.  Golden Heart Ranch® is proud to be providing a ground-breaking solution for the future of these children. Please join us in securing their future.
