Overview

Idaho Youth Ranch is a non-profit 501(c)(3) agency that offers emergency shelter, residential care, youth and family therapy, job readiness training, adoption services, and more. Since 1953, Idaho Youth Ranch has been a beacon of hope for struggling kids and families. We unite for Idaho's youth by providing accessible programs and services that nurture hope, healing, and resilience.
In August of 2023, Idaho Youth Ranch opened the Residential Center for Healing and Resilience on the Hands of Promise Campus in Caldwell.
These buildings and services were designed to support the physical, emotional, and educational needs of the children and teens who will live here. Youth are supported with 24-hour nursing, psychiatric care, proven treatment models, and a year-round school. Designed and modeled after leading national facilities, the center includes medication management, nutrition, and physical fitness in a secure environment with 24-hour supervision. All this care supports one goal: helping kids heal and return to their families and communities in a safe and supported manner.
