Yellowstone Boys & Girls Ranch - TOP TEN of Yellowstone County
Yellowstone Boys and Girls Ranch is recognized in the latest publication by the Montana Department of Labor and Industry. The Ranch is featured in the "Top 10 Private Employers in Yellowstone County".
In 1957, Franklin Robbie visited a correctional school, and that visit forever changed his life. Determined to help the forgotten boys and give them another option, Robbie along with Carl Orth and Bob McFarlane, raised money to purchase property that would be home to the Yellowstone Boys & Girls Ranch. Now what was originally a dairy farm stands a nationally recognized facility that helps youth with behavioral and mental health issues. “I think that the community here is very supportive of the ranch and our mission to help children and families”, says ranch spokeswoman Andrea Kenney.
At any given time the Yellowstone Boys & Girls Ranch, helps 750 kids through its programs.
