Provide a permanent and loving environment for children who through no
fault of their own are in need of a home, a family, and the opportunity
simply to be children. We base our concepts on a belief in God and the
uniqueness, dignity, and inherent worth of each individual.
Aggressively seize opportunities to be proactive and innovative, ensuring
that children in Florida who are in no win situations are provided an
opportunity to heal, a chance to regain their childhood, and an opportunity
to succeed in the future.
Liberty Youth Ranch
recognizes the magnitude of the situation, that we will likely be the last, and perhaps,
only place that our children will receive a chance in life. We must do
everything in our capability to bring healing and hope to a generation
of hurting children. Firm in the conviction that every child has the right
to be shown unconditional love, Liberty Youth Ranch strives to meet the
needs of children in crisis. Because of our conviction that Christ has
the answers to the problems of children and families, Liberty Youth Ranch
has set in motion programs that are as Christ-centered as we can make
them. All that is done through this ministry is rooted in the compassionate
love of Christ.
Through a combination
of grace and mercy, we will strive to create a nurturing environment grounded
in faith and abiding in love. We will make it possible for our children
to discover hope, thereby igniting in them a desire to reach their God-given
potential. By the year 2013, Liberty Youth Ranch will cumulatively provide
a home for over 48 children.
