We are not the best place for every child who cannot live at home. The children we admit understand that we are not a reform school and we are not equipped to handle intensive psychological therapy. We admit students who understand that their cooperation is essential in the kind of help we have to offer. They are here as participants in a community, not as prisoners and not as patients. We seek to refer children who need reform or more intensive therapy to other ministries whose mission is focused in the area of that child’s particular needs.

Through God’s faithfulness and provision, Wears Valley Ranch is able to work with each individual family to make the cost of attendance affordable — scholarships are generous and cost never gets in the way of a child and family receiving the care and support they need.

If you know of a child that would benefit from the ministry at Wears Valley Ranch, please tell us more by filling out our short referral form found here.
