Alabama Sheriffs Youth Ranches
It's easier to build boys and girls than to repair men and women.
OUR MISSION
The mission of the Ranches is to provide Christian, family-style residential homes for Alabama's at-risk children and youth in an atmosphere where they may grow spiritually and physically into productive, responsible, and happy adults.
"I am very thankful for the [Colbert County Girls Ranch] and all that they've done for me. It is just one big family - I love it! They have made me a better person by loving me as I am and allowing me to become the person they knew I was capable of becoming." - C.

"I'm thankful for the ranch because, even though I have graduated and moved away, the lessons I learned there and the new life I gained will stay with me forever." - I.
