Sessions
THE HEART OF OUR PROGRAM
Heart’s Landing Ranch is place where youth can come and experience healing through life on a ranch. Each child will be paired with a mentor who will contribute to developing life skills, promote healing, and encourage personal growth. Visitors to the program will have opportunity to do a variety of activities with a mentor within a 90-minute session.
Part of the session will include a small ranch chore that will teach responsibility, discipline, and work ethic. The remaining part of the session will involve an activity chosen by the mentor and child, thus allowing for a fun and nurturing time with a caring and positive role-model.
The mentor may choose from five main categories:
In addition to the 90-minute sessions we plan on having occasional special events and opportunities for community involvement. This may include family and friend gatherings, volunteer workdays, picnics, BBQ's, camp outs, or any positive family activity that promotes our mission.
It is our goal that through this mentorship program we will provide an alternative positive experience that will help at-risk youth and their families develop confidence, learn new skills and experience healthy relationships.
