Our Story
Every child deserves a safe place to call home.
Since 2011, Parks Youth Ranch has provided safety, stability, and hope for youth experiencing abuse, neglect, homelessness, and family crisis.
How it Began
Parks Youth Ranch was founded with a simple but powerful belief: every child deserves a safe place to call home. When children face abuse, neglect, homelessness, or family crisis, they need more than temporary shelter—they need stability, compassion, and caring adults who believe in their future.
Parks Youth Ranch provides emergency shelter, counseling, and life changing services to abused and neglected youth.
Our Mission
Through strong and effective community partnerships with a sustainable financial base, the youth receiving care at the Fred and Mabel R. Parks Youth Ranch will be empowered with coping skills, hope, achievable goals; and no longer at risk of being homeless.
Our Vision
Our Core Purpose
