Guiding Young Men to Heal, Grow, and Thrive Through 4-H

Sponsor a young man this summer through our Summer of Hope Campaign…

Safe Haven Youth Ranch provides a healing, trauma-focused residential program for young men ages 10-17 who have experienced severe abuse, neglect, and instability in the foster care system. Through evidence-based treatment, 4-H programs, and individualized support, we help them rebuild their sense of self and achieve lasting recovery.

Our Mission

Our mission is to prioritize and implement a Youth-Guided and Trauma-Informed Care approach to treatment, care, and support. We ensure that each youth has a sustainable voice in all aspects of their treatment and provide a safe environment where their voice can be heard.

Our Vision

Empower and strengthen youth to achieve resilience and recovery from childhood trauma.

Our Philosophy

At our core, we believe in fostering a culture where a youth-guided approach to healing and recovery is paramount. We hold the conviction that empowering each youth along a continuum of empowerment, tailored to their unique level of understanding and maturity, is essential. This strength-based change process is aimed at cultivating positive relationships and enhancing motivation, aligning perfectly with our mission to prioritize and implement Youth-Guided and Trauma-Informed Care.

Support Our Youth

Our ability to support youth with evidence-based program practices, trauma treatment models, research-backed 4-H positive youth development programs, and enjoyable events stems from the generosity of our donors.
