About
The Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches Residential Care Program includes swimming, baseball, volleyball, canoeing, and arts and crafts. The program also includes an on-campus job, chapel services, and recreation activities as part of daily life for participating youth.
• Ages: 3–18 years old
Founded in 1957, the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches operates three residential care campuses in Florida with a family model that places “Ranchers” in homes with a married couple referred to as “mom and pop.” The program follows a four-pillar philosophy of Work, Study, Play and Pray, and daily schedules include school, an on-campus job, chapel services, and recreation activities. Staff members are trained in Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), and each residential care campus is staffed by qualified, mission-driven people. Youth Ranch Safety Harbor is the third residential child care program established by Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches, Inc. and is home to sibling groups who need a place to grow up in a safe environment as a family. The organization’s mission is to prevent delinquency and develop lawful, resilient, and productive citizens, and its vision is to develop empowered young men and women who face life with a sense of direction, ability and hope. The cornerstone of the organization is its nationally renown network of residential campuses, and it offers nationally recognized services to at-risk youth. The program philosophy includes counseling services, family engagement, and unconditional love and support from staff.
The Don Genung Training and Resource Center equips law enforcement, teachers, biological, adoptive, and foster parents, churches, and systems of care with Trauma-Informed Care Services, including employee training, TBRI evidence-based trainings, and implementation strategies to help create trauma informed communities.
