Yellowstone Boys and Girls Ranch (YBGR) is a trusted leader in children’s mental health, serving thousands of youth annually.

Since welcoming our first child to the Ranch in 1957, we’ve transformed countless lives, guiding youth toward healing and resilience in the face of trauma and mental health challenges.

Today, we provide a full spectrum of care across Montana. Through our PRTF residential treatment at our historic campus in Billings, therapeutic group homes, and statewide community-based support, we equip youth with the hope, strength, and tools that prepare them for life.

“I would encourage any parent to reach out to YBGR.”

“I could not be where I am today without you and all the wonderful people working there. I miss my staff and counselors – the angels who helped me.”

“It is a pleasure to find such gifted and caring people with whom I can comfortably place the responsibility of my child’s needs – mentally, physically and spiritually.”

“You have no idea how many times a day we think of you and thank God for you and all the staff at Yellowstone. Our son is a real joy to us now, and we know that the work you did with him is largely responsible.”

“Admitting our son to Yellowstone was the hardest thing we’ve ever done. Our son being at Yellowstone allowed us to heal, and our son to receive the intensive therapy, structure and safety he needed.”
