Residential Services


At The Buckeye Ranch, our immediate goal is to design the most effective program for each child, teen and family seeking help and healing. In severe cases, when a child may need treatment in a temporary residential program, due to serious mental health, behavioral, and drug/alcohol issues, our 24-hour treatment program at our 145-acre campus offers the care and structure they need.

Everyday in this rich, conducive environment, girls and boys ages 10-18 are experiencing healing. For children who may be harmful to themselves or others, our Intensive Care Residential Program provides a higher level of structure and clinical care.  For most residential treatment programs, the average length of stay is 3-6 months.

The Ranch's residential programs include the following treatment options for children and families:

  • Intensive and non-intensive residential care
  • Intensive mental health and drug/alcohol services
  • Services for the Deaf & Hard-of-hearing
  • Family counseling
  • Case management
  • Alternative education
  • Juvenile sex offender services
  • Traditional therapies such as art therapy, as well as nontraditional therapies like animal-assisted therapy, play therapy, music therapy,and horticulture therapy
