The Process

The BSR Program

In addition to working with the boys on a personal level, our mentors teach the boys shop skills and outdoor education, as well as basic life skills that will enable them to live independently and productively in society. The Equine Assisted Learning portion of our program offers a transformative experience of healing while developing interpersonal abilities.

The Results

Stories of Hope

“Without this ranch, I don’t know where we would be. My son has learned so much responsibility. He has learned to use his hands to make furniture. His attitude went away. I no longer get phone calls about his grades. My son has done a complete 180. I thank you guys everyday for the young man he is becoming.”  -Jennifer

“The reasons we support BSR are many, but there is one that is most important to me: I was very fortunate to be raised by both loving parents who were there to hold me accountable when I went down the wrong path. I can’t even imagine where I would have ended up without a father figure in my life. Not only for the accountability, but even just to show me how to be a man, how to treat people with respect, what a work ethic is, how to work with my hands, and how to raise my own children. With a father figure in my life, I was able to take the skill of working with my hands and brain together to become a successful and blessed person. I believe the leaders and volunteers at BSR are doing that very same thing for these boys. They are providing some of the accountability, guidance, and love that all children need to become successful people in our society and in the eyes of God.”
