Welcome Home Ranch is a vision of KCI – Kids, planned to fill the desperate need for temporary and permanent, rehabilitative, residential care for youth.

The kids will live in a homey, family atmosphere. A multi-purpose building will accommodate activities to teach life skills, social skills and an all around quality education. As a public service organization we will encourage the youth to reach out to their community and contribute their time and energies in positive ways.

Welcome Home Ranch will be a working ranch with farming and animals giving the youth a feeling of real accomplishment.

KCI - Kids is unique in that we are community based and will provide services as a support team for the entire family.

You should know that:

• Twice as much money is spent incarcerating youth as is spent in Community-Based placement centers where the concentration is on rehabilitation rather than punishment.

• Youth who have been incarcerated are three times more likely to re-offend than youth who are placed in alternative residential facilities.

• 75% of youth who are released from juvenile detention return within one year.

• Jail is no place to call home! These kids need a better Alternative!

We plan to provide job skills, life skills, character building and the development of good social behavior and working relationships.

Join us in our vision for Welcome Home Ranch – Look for future up-dates – Together we can make it happen!
