Individualized Care

Every person is unique - which means our program can’t be one-size-fits-all. Throughout the decades, HCYR has stayed ahead of the curve, providing top tier care and ensuring that our residents are equipped with skills and opportunities to move powerfully forward.

Incredible Community

Our community has made it possible for our children and young adults to succeed. Our programs, services, and campuses are what they are today because of our incredible Ranch Family. Through funds, volunteering, and advocacy, the Youth Ranch continues strong.

Compassionate Team

Looking for a mission in life? Join an organization that creates lasting, positive impact in the lives of youth in need. With three campuses in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, we are always looking for kind and dedicated people to join our team.

Home to Over 2000 Alumni Since 1977

Since 1977, Hill Country Youth Ranch’s mission has been to provide a safe, loving, and life-enhancing Christian environment for children and young adults.

HCYR works with foster care and privately placed children, young adults transitioning into adulthood, and single mothers of any age. We also serve children and adults in the community through our charter school system and provide life-long support to our alumni.

We have three campuses in the Texas Hill Country: HCYR’s Main Campus, Big Springs Ranch, and Fall Branch Village.

"I'm grateful for y'all being in my life and for never giving up on me. I also want to thank you for giving my brothers and sister a safe place to live so we could be together. I am grateful for all the friends I've made and the family that we've become."
