The Program
Our Mission
To help youth through our ranch work, horse therapy,and special needs resources, to learn how to be responsible, achieve goals, and live correctly in order to succeed in today's world.
With the guidance of our full time therapist, Flying 7 will develop a plan after the youth is admitted to assess the child's immediate and specific needs, and identify the direction and goals needed for positive change. Then Flying 7 will initiate the specific services and other resources to meet those needs. We only have a maximum of five students which assures individual attention.
Schooling needs will be met through the special needs program at the local high school. However, they will be schooled at the ranch again guaranteeing one on one attention.
- Goals : The boys will set goals for responsibility accomplishment etc, which is already there
- Journals : A journal will be kept to track their progress and experiences.
- Activity : Activities will consist of normal ranch work including calving, foaling, branding, round-ups, and cattle drives
- Horse Therapy : Each student will have his own assigned horse that he will learn to care for and help train.
The schedule will be flexible to allow time for the needs of the boys. Such as therapy, etc. Sometimes the ranch work itself will necessitate flexibility in scheduling, for example, during calving and foaling times, we may have to be with an animal during unscheduled time
The boys will set goals for responsibility, accomplishment, and good behavior. When goals are reached, there will be rewards, such as being assigned their own horse for a project, horse back rides, participation in round-ups, etc. A journal will be kept to tract their progress and experiences.
