Every healing journey looks different and is composed of many moments and experiences that create change.

At The Buckeye Ranch's Residential Treatment campus, Small Animal Therapy offers youth a unique, evidence-informed way to build connections, process emotions, and develop new skills alongside 15 resident animals, from rabbits and chinchillas to turtles, parrots, geckos, and even snakes!

Guided by our clinicians, every interaction is intentionally designed to support each young person's therapeutic journey and help them discover their strengths in a safe, supportive environment.

Small Animal Therapy is just one example of the innovative programs helping youth heal, grow, and build brighter futures at The Buckeye Ranch.

This October, our foster care team is recognizing the power of belonging.

Every child deserves to feel safe, valued, supported, and connected to caring adults who can help them navigate life's challenges. Foster parents play a vital role in creating that sense of stability and community, offering encouragement, guidance, and hope during times of uncertainty.

If you have ever considered opening your heart and home to a child in need, now is the time to learn more. Together, we can ensure more children experience the comfort, support, and belonging they deserve.

✨ The holidays are around the corner and we need your help to make the season brighter!

Our Hope for the Holidays program matches generous donors, like you, with children receiving support from The Buckeye Ranch. When you sign up, you’ll receive a child's wish list that will help make their holiday dreams come true. ❤️

Last year, you helped fulfill more than 2,000 wish lists! This year, we have an even greater need for donors as 3,500 wish lists need to be matched before the end of November.

Sign up today and give hope to a child this holiday season:

The Columbus Foundation recently featured The Buckeye Ranch in its Stories of Impact section of its Annual Report, spotlighting the Hope Treatment Center and our commitment to raising hope and restoring healing for children, youth, and families across Ohio.

The story shares how the Hope Treatment Center is expanding access to specialized mental health treatment for youth experiencing a crisis, ensuring more children and families receive the care they need when they need it most.

We are deeply grateful to The Columbus Foundation and the generous donors whose support helped make this vision a reality. Together, we're creating a future where more youth can find safety, stability, and hope.
