Cal Farley's Boys Ranch

Boys Ranch: Cal farley's, a 501(c)(3) organization with a history spanning more than 80 years, is one of the largest privately funded child and family service organizations in the united states. We provide residential and community-based services at no cost to the families we serve, thanks to the continued generosity of our supporters. Cal Farley's campus at Boys Ranch, Texas, provides a safe, therapeutic residential environment for nearly 200 children each year (170 children in fy 2022). Here, children ages 5 to 18 from across the united states (28 states in fy 2022) receive personal, professional care aimed at meeting the six areas of need we believe everyone must satisfy to achieve their god-given potential: safety, belonging, achievement, power, purpose, and adventure. Most will stay about two years, though some require a longer time with us. After high school graduation or completing their plans of service, Cal Farley's offers former residents access to an extensive network of alumni support services that includes transitional living and academic scholarship programs (12 scholarships were awarded to br graduates of fy 2022).

Alumni and program support services: alumni support services is an example of Cal Farley's lifetime commitment to the children we serve in residence. These services provide a source of comfort, encouragement, and a sense of family support to alumni. When a resident makes the transition from campus life to becoming functioning members of their communities, alumni support is there to help them. Alumni support provided case management services to 75 alumni throughout the year; 39 alumni were provided with housing or housing assistance; and 57 alumni were recipients of post-secondary education scholarships from Cal Farley's during fy 2022. Program support includes Cal Farley's intake call center, which fielded 3,556 calls resulting in information about Cal Farley's programs as well as referrals to other reputable agencies and resources that may be better equipped to meet the needs of the child and family.
