Mission

The Mission of Spring Lake Ranch is to offer caring, support and a positive practical program for troubled people, to enable them to find a place within society.

Our ongoing task is to maintain a community where people who are mentally and emotionally in need, as well as staff and their families, live and work together in an atmosphere of trust, respect, and enjoyment.

In support of this effort:

  • we honor the value of each day's work -its mix of chores, projects and personal encounters - as an expression of each member's contribution to the community;
  • we preserve the land on which the Ranch is based, acknowledging the natural and spiritual resources it provides;
  • we recognize the potential of our community as a model of healing, and our responsibility to share this experience with others;
  • we make every effort to open the community to those who would benefit, regardless of their ability to pay;
  • we offer access to professional treatment, and assist people in the difficult choices concerning its use.

Because we recognize that life is open-ended and unpredictable, we accept vulnerability and live in hope.
