Services: Residential, Educational, Community-based
The Cal Farley’s programs offer three types of services to children and families: residential, educational and community-based.
The residential, or campus-based, programs offer children a campus environment where children live in homes or cottages at Cal Farley’s Boys Ranch or Cal Farley’s Girlstown, U.S.A. Ten to 12 children live in the homes with house parent couples providing supervision, mentoring and parenting. Our basic-care services offer 24-hour supervision in a small community setting.
The educational programs provide the children on our campuses academic, athletic and extracurricular opportunities similar to those offered at other Texas public schools.
Finally, our community-based services offer a variety of resources to children and families. Not all children require or would benefit from our residential services, but many families can benefit from our expertise without resorting to the trauma of out-of-home placement.
