Ranch Hope Strang School

My dad was born in 1963 and went here from around the ages of 8-12 ish I believe. We were nearby due to my little brother having a lacrosse tournament, but I have long heard of this school before from nostalgic memories my dad experienced. So, my dad went here during the early 70s and he contributes his success as an adult to this school and program still, almost half a century later. He was aggressive and out of control as a child and his parents just couldn't handle him so they sent him here. Over the years he got married, had four children, and a successful contracting company that he built from the ground up on his own. My dad isn't a perfect man but he's a good man. So I guess I am also thankful for this school and hope it is still doing justice to those in need of guidance and care. Thank you Ranch Hope for helping my dad when he needed it most.

I spent 4 yrs there 88-92. There was some good counselors there ..like anywhere it gonna have it's ups and downs ..dyfs was actually working on having me spend my entire life there . Never happened but always wondered what has happened to the counselors and some of the guys I made friends with

A wonderful organization that works with young boys and girls. I was once a boy of 14 years old there in 1964. Rev Dave Bailey and his spouse Eileen founded the Ranch 57 years ago. Dave Bailey Jr now is the CEO. What a wonderful individual Dave Jr. Is.

I attended ranch hope one of the best if not the best residential homes I've been to. I love the flag football league they have there it was so much fun and enjoyable I wonder if they still do it. Thing is a lot of the things I was taught at ranch hope are things that I use in my everyday life today so i was lucky to be a part of this program it could had been worse for me when i was younger.

Larry Shinn...maybe you did have an horrible experience. '84 and '85 are decades in the past. I give them a 5-star rating for what they've set out to accomplish. They're a Christian organization striving to uplift young men and women in critical situations.

Started by my boss' parents MANY MANY years ago!! Blessings upon blessings

They do a great job with our challenged youth.

I am a former boy of the ranch.

Great. ......

Awesome
