Incorporated in 1960, Sky Ranch for Boys is recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a tax-exempt organization. Contributions are tax-deductible. Sky Ranch accepts boys between the ages of 12 and 17 without regard to race, religion, or national origin.
Sky Ranch for Boys is a residential treatment facility located on 3,000 acres in Harding County South Dakota and Carter County Montana. With a staff of 38, Sky Ranch cares for approximately 40 boys at a time.
Most of the boys have been referred by courts or social service agencies and suffer from a variety of emotional, behavioral, learning, and social adaptation problems.
Sky Ranch is a licensed Special Education facility and places great emphasis on helping the boys improve their basic skill levels in reading, math and science. Sky Ranch has a staff of counselors, case workers, therapists, teachers and other professionals who help the boys improve their learning and behavior skills, as well as overcome the effects of abuse, family disintegration, contact with criminal elements, and other social trauma.
