Welcome
| Golden Heart RanchTM is dedicated to building a life center residential community where special needs young adults can live, learn, work and play 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!
GHRTM is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization |

Our Families
"My son is 14 and the thing that keeps me up at night is what will happen to him when I'm gone. The possibilities are frightening ... until now. This is probably the most important project that any special needs parent could ever support." -Allan Pressel, father of Austin (diagnosed with Autism) |
