Family Member Testimonial
“The Ranch is totally different from other treatment centers, with focus on treatment through work. Instead of concentrating on talk therapy and medication, it is a place that believes in living a more normal life: getting up every day, preparing to work in a variety of vocations like farming, wood working, kitchen duties, animal husbandry, syrup making, etc. It is a community set in the peaceful and beautiful hills of Vermont.”
