THE HOME

The Ranch, one of New Horizons’ residential treatment centers, located near Goldthwaite, Texas, provides individualized, intensive inpatient treatment programs for boys and girls suffering from emotional, behavioral, and attachment or relationship problems. The Ranch is home to 74 children, ages 5 to 17. Because of the intense treatment we provide, children are sent to us from all areas of Texas.

Sitting on 150 acres, The Ranch, has an accredited charter school, a horse barn and riding arena, a swimming pool, playgrounds, campus lakes, football and baseball fields, a tennis court, an indoor gym, three homes, and a chapel/family center. The Ranch employs a 24-hour integrated treatment team approach that combines therapy and services carefully designed to meet the individual resident’s treatment needs.

THERAPEUTIC CARE

Treatment is directed by a professional team consisting of a psychiatrist, a psychologist, licensed clinical therapists, social workers, state accredited special education teachers, and trained direct care staff who employ a social model utilizing group interaction to teach accountability; social skills; and ownership of one’s behavior, emotions, and life choices.
