Group Programs

At Crossroads Youth Ranch, we believe in providing young people with opportunities to thrive and develop valuable life skills. Our Rodeo Teams and Teen Fellowship programs offer a group setting that encourages growth and camaraderie. Whether it’s honing riding skills or fostering meaningful connections, our mission is to create lasting memories and empower every child. 

Volunteering

Join us at Crossroads Youth Ranch and make a difference in the lives of young adults. Our Mentorship Program offers a unique opportunity to guide and empower these individuals as they transition into adulthood. Alternatively, you can participate in our Wilderness/Horsemanship Summer Camps, where you can connect with nature and learn valuable skills while fostering meaningful connections. Every child deserves a chance, and with your support, we can provide them with a stable and nurturing environment. 

Crossroads Youth Ranch

Our primary focus as a faith-based mission is to follow Jesus Christ in providing a temporary home, with lasting positive relationships for young adult females, whom have been involved in the DSS Foster care system, and help guide them in a successful transition into adulthood. So, that they may learn the needed skills and resources to live independently, support them selves, and be an asset to our community.

Every Child Deserves a Chance

How We Are Different
Through the years of experience in working with DSS and multiple group homes, we believe our program will set newer and higher standards for South Carolina. By walking in our Christian faith and demonstrating our Christian values, in our home and in our program, we will be able to empower and equip our girls to make the right choices in their life’s crossroads, as it relates to their mind, body, and spirit.
How We Share The Gospel
Faith at the Ranch is lived, not preached. We believe in God and the saving grace of His son, Jesus Christ. It is our greatest desire to serve God by the demonstration of our faith through action by our love for Him. Our residents are given the opportunity to attend church weekly and participate in church activities, as well as discipleship. We have a House Pastor to lead in weekly devotions and to help serve during crisis management.
How You Can Help
Prayer, commitment, time and love are vital traits to providing a healthy family-like atmosphere. If you are unable to help CRYR as a mentor or by volunteering your time, donations are also vital to the success of our ministry.

If you are interested in seeing how you can help, have a desire to make a monthly or one time donation or would like additional information. Please contact us.

A beautiful place to be yourself and enjoy the beauty that God has created. The children that come here learn so much about being "in the moment" and Wonderful friendships are created that last a lifetime.
